Are you in santiago? and i agree... SOMEBODY GET THESE PEOPLE SOME BETA KEYS yes, im in santiago. The major reason about our incredible engineering and buildings its the paranoia after 60`s valdivia earthquake, that event was cataclysmic, the whole geography changed, boats in the mountains, cities turned in lakes, etc.. after that and because of constantly minor and mid earthquakes because nazca plate, forged a national spirit and knowledge about this kind of event, i think we have the best experts in the world in this issue. | ||

I saw the cailing moving like a sheet on a water bed. I am usualy cool with quakes, so i didnt panic at all, like many people here in my neighbourhood. Here in santiago some old buildings are in the ground some new 20 floor buildings are in danger of falling soon, but the damage and deaths are amazingly low. Some highways are broken, at least 5 towns and small cities are complete devasted, The poorest people always get the most damage, i am still getting in touch with my family and friends. | ||

expecting first wave of tsunami at 11 AM HST (-10 GMT) most signs are pointing towards small waves only for the first wave - not expecting much damage. | ||

This was a great article in the Times the other day, Chile seems to be much better prepared than many other countries. If an earthquake hits one of these cities.... D: | ||
