        I don't know what to say.  It's good if the China earthquake victims
        are drawing inspiration and encouragement from the Sep 11 victims.  I
        just hope that the flag wasn't planted by the Reuters journalist
        himself trying to get a Pulitzer Prize.

10/20  Earthquake!

       \_ It's funny that the Great California ShakeOut earthquake drill just

7/29    5.8 quake in LA
        \_ Felt exactly like Whittier quake, so it's not surprising it's

        \_ Chino Hills is NOT Los Angeles. Los Angeles is in-between

10/30   Whoo big earthquake
        \_ Was it just me, or did this quake feel very different than the other
           ones I went through?  In all the other ones I went through (San Jose
           during Loma Prieta quake in '89, Irvine during Northridge quake in
           '94, and a few smaller ones), the buildings swung or shook.
           However, last night my house in Fremont literally vibrated
