earthquake
Thanks to those of you who wrote with concern for my safety during the earthquake in Chengdu. I am just fine and did not feel anything during the earthquake, although some people in Shanghai did, which is actually further away from the epicenter than Nanjing is. I'm over 2,000 kilometers from Chengdu (although I did spend a week there last November).
The news this morning is reporting higher casualties, in the range of 10,000 killed, which is terrible, but the government has a very organized response and they are doing everything they can to reduce further deaths. It is a tragedy, but nothing like what is going on in Myanmar after the cyclone.
