6.6 magnitude earthquake hits just off coast of Niigata, Japan
Hope everything is all right there. It caused small tsunamis.
Here is a link..
Reports of 2 deaths, and 200 injured. Small buildings and properties damaged. Lets all hope that the cradle of nishikigoi wasnt hit.

thanks for the heads up. I hadn't heard of the news yet so was glad to have a link. Sounds like all are ok but had to create some anxious moments.
