    I was tracking the news in google, where I first saw anything about the earthquake. The google news link said "earthquake in China, many feared hurt but upon investigation only minor injuries so far" Then 2 or 3 hours later it said "death toll rises in China earthquake " Then of course, 10,000 souls reported extinguished and Chengdu. The news reports now say that because the infrastructure leading to the city, plus the poor construction within the city itself, that the rescue workers are getting in one man at a time, no rescue vehicles or equipment.

    Beautiful ancient Chengdu. My thoughts are with you.
