Chilean Earthquake

Our hearts, thoughts and prayers go out once again to the victims of natural disaster, this time Chile. A much more advanced country than the last victim, Haiti, with vastly better infrastructure and a rehearsed emergency plan. I fear we may not yet know the full extent of the damage and loss of life. We can only imagine the trauma of those caught up in such an event and the grief of the survivors for family and friends who are gone. The collective sympathy and aid of the rest of the world is on its way.

This hemisphere is having troubling seismic disturbance. We must hope San Andreas remains quiet down below.
