windshawne Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/afp_asiapacific/view/1115810/1/.html This tragedy continues to get worse by the hour. I remember this happening with the Loma Prieta quake in 1987. (San Fran) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 69,000 visitors safely evacuated. Wow. Can you imagine the logistics of that. Very well done...and during a very frightening and tragic event... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windshawne Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 The have preparedness down to a science over there it seems. It's pretty frightening to see the floor roll like it did during that quake, and I can only imagine how it felt compared to the 7.2 of the San Fran quake. The videos of Santa Cruz were pretty frightening as well. Haven't seen anything about the boardwalk yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
