Exclamation Another quake!

We had another earthquake about 30 minutes ago, while I was on the 15th floor of a building. In all my time here, this is the first time that I had seen buildings actually shake, with the aerials whipping back and forth. The epicenter was in Miyagi prefecture, north of here and East of Niigata.

Scary, but no damage around here.

appreciate Brian posting to let us know he was ok. I always think about the people when I hear the news and worry till I know they're OK.

This earthquake stuff in japan gets more frequent, serious as iot goes along.

In a film clip this am I saw a worker run to support a rack of monitors and i thought to my self that would be the last thing I worried about....more like my hyde!

Another Earthquake! Hey knowbody told me that these earthquakes were so frequent. I was in the office (2nd floor) when the shaking started. It was the longest quake I have ever felt. It started small and then got more violent. The shaking lasted almost a minute or so. As the shaking got worst, you could see the concern comeover everyones face. All the car alarms in the parking lots went off, birds were rustled out of trees, I had to tell myself get away from the windows. I guess the worst part of it is that you NEVER know when its going to come.
