  Massive Earthquake in Chile
We're just hearing about an 8.8 magnitude earthquake in Chile.
I hope that our forum friends there are OK.

I thought this was a public forum? (Feel free to move it if you like). Smile

 Hi everyone!

Sam and I are OK. I only got my electricity back about 15 hours ago and I still don't have Internet at home. My family is OK and I think Sam's too.

The south is fucking devastated... tsunami and people robbing the stores. It's hell. Hopefully everything will be OK soon.

Thanks for caring.

 Thanks Geoff, Minoesj, Panthera and Faunus!

Everything is back to normal where I live. People are still suffering down south though. Confused

How can you say that when your bloody earthquake has shortened my days by 1.26 milliseconds? How am I supposed to get everything done now? Mad

I guess those Musca domesticae at your place will just have to flap their wings one less time. You can tell them to deal with it. Very Happy
