Here's hoping the country can recover quickly. Can't imagine how bad it is overthere right now.
There was an earthquake near Eureka (a city about 200 miles north of here) a few days ago and it was 6.0 on the Richter scale. There was damage, but no injuries. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by guidogodoy from Tuesday, January 12, 2010 9:59:09 PM)

Flip on CNN or Fox. It is all over the news. They really don't have a judge on the damage but I just came from the other half of the island in the República Dominicana and can vouch that the place was already a mess. Natural disasters on top of one of the biggest slums I have ever seen and I didn't even cross into Haiti.
I am guessing that it will be bad once they access the damage. I knew they had a fault line running under the country but a 7.0 is going to be massive in certain parts of the country as they didn't build to withstand such damage. I sit on the New Madrid fault and even have earthquake insurance.
