8.2 Earthquake hit Northern Sumatra, Indonesia again

Post by weixing »

Hi,
This morning (29 Mar 2005) 00:09, a 8.2 Magnitude Earthquake hit Northern Sumatra again... the location is actually very near the deadly 9.0 Earthquake that occur last december. Ariefm71 felt the Earthquake in his home, but I didn't... may be Ariefm71 live quite high...

Anyway, just hope that the damage is not serious! :k-worried: :k-worried:

Have a nice day.

yeah....my 21" inch CRT monitor (huge fellow) was swaying!

I thought I got some motion sickness or something but I never drink any beer what

Check my chair, nothing wrong, but things were swaying left and right.

Thought my illness must be quite serious.....wah low...
