After the disaster, and the resulting global bruhaha the chicom have seemed to shut the door on photos over the new. Must have been pretty bad, but mud brick is not very quake resistant.

Oh, my, that's for sure. I wonder then, with 10,000 homes destroyed, what of the death toll, the survivors, and need for aid? Too bad it isn't an Olympic year, like last year, and maybe they would be more forthcoming. I agree, this makes it seem very devastating.
