They are scary, but I think you have a much greater chance of getting killed in a car wreck or hit by bus than being killed in a earthquake. Take a chill pill people!

Accidents do happen, and they're not limited to Japan only. There are many places in the world that are ill equipped to handle some of the things Mother Nature throws our way. That said, hopefully you'll be safe wherever you call home :) I’ll admit that the typhoons and earthquakes are a bit worrisome sometimes, but all in all, Japan is a great place to live, work and raise a family.

No, I was at work, and maybe too far away to feel it, though I’m sure they’ll be another along soon so I’m not too disappointed ;-)

You beat me to the punch on this topic. I had something in the queue, but haven't had time to edit and finally release the post. I like the direction that Japan is going with this warning system, and it's certainly more effective than most of the warning systems that are found elsewhere in the world. That said, if I only had 10 seconds to prepare for a monster quake, I'd make sure my wife was out of the house and her family was close behind. We can always repair a house, but we can't always repair people. Did you feel the 3.0 last night at 9:35?
