More Quakes!

It seems that the natural world is in a state of flux! The horrors of the Japanese quake has hit our screens and even more awesome, the power of a tsunami has stunned us. As I've said before, you can design and build earthquake resistant buildings, but you can't make earthquake proof buildings and nothing we could do would stop those millions of tons of water going exactly where they choose.
I am pleased that an initial team of 48 USAR specialists from NZ are already on their way to Japan. The least we can do after Japan's speedy response to our own disaster in Christchurch. It would be nice to think, that all this tragedy might make the peoples of the world, stop bickering and act as one to fight natures worst. A kind of bonding in the face of common adversity.
We can live in hope.
