Hi ChefJeff.....have you selected a KK yet? Dennis indicated after the first quake they were ok. Don't know about the others...

Lets hope there wasn't a ship in the way of the tsunami.. :eek:

The shakes all seemed to be located on Sumatra, well to the west, or on other islands. Not on Java, where Dennis (usually) is. :)

In Asia they were also smart enough to locate their fault lines in the middle of the ocean instead of underneath major cities (including a city with a rather ill-conceived subway system...). In Taiwan I experienced my first Earthquake and it was an interesting experience; the SoCal girl I was with was terrified because it lasted about a minute, but there was no damage because the entire island shakes as one. One of the buildings has a huge sphere it uses is a rolling support column to help absorb the motion - kind of cool.
