I know you guys probably know about it by now but there was a 6.3 quake in Christchurch south island on NZ. 65 are confirmed dead and more are expected.

i know a few people there and there ok but with the persistent aftershocks is making them hard to sleep.

i hope all is ok  :(

Very sad. I was there in October of 1999 with the Air Guard from New York State before heading down to McMurdo Ice Station on the coast of Antarctica. I've pictures of downtown and all, especially of the stone church at the center of town. Beautiful city. It will be again, but not the same as before. :'(
