We’ve already been there. And look what happened.

Try the 3-D earthquake program here:
WWW.WOLTON.NET

Its free and pretty cool if you like EQs.

I have a new toy! thanks.

But I gotta warn you. My husband is mad at you now. LOL!

[Quix]

Thanks for the update.

Glad about the autoshut offs!

Taiwan has done a lot of things right.

Finally.

Glad you and family are well.

BLESSINGS,

Gaia is angry. We must appease her by throwing Al Gore into a volcano.

LOL

[Quix]

IF I felt the evidence and realities supported the luxury of avoiding END TIMES concerns,

I’d love

to go in a different direction.

Alas . . .

[agere_contra]

No, more Southern 1/3 of the Island.<

I read that as "No more southern third of the Island".

Dang, that would have been some quake.

[Quix]

LOL.

There IS that little comma after No,

Sorry.

[demshateGod]

Issac Newton said the end would be BEFORE 2060 so I guess 2012 might be it.

I believe it technically is moderate....probably some minor damage and and injuries.

Hopefully no worse.

If off the coast, it is definitely way too weak for a tsunami at least.

[rwfromkansas]

The U.S. hasn’t had a real earthquake with major damage and injuries in decades....80s I think was the last one.

We are about overdue frankly at this point.

“Now as He (Jesus) sat on the Mount of Olives,
the disciples came to Him privately, saying,
Tell us, when will these things be?
And What will be the sign of Your coming,
and of the end of the Age?
Matt 24:3)

“Jesus answered and said to them ...
And there will be earthquakes in various (diverse) places,”
(Matt 24:7)

I’m flying to Taiwan on Tuesday, spending time in Tainan and Kaohsiung. A small rolling quake might be nice!

[Quix]

THANKS THANKS.

[Quix]

Please enjoy some puffed rice cubes for me! LOL.

Guess I could get some sugar crisps . . . not quite the same, though.

Ahhhh well, can’t eat either with my gums . . . LOL.

[sand lake bar]

Know what the first thing is I want to eat? Fried oysters! That’s a specialty. Their soft enough for my teeth!

Fried oysters is the only way I can stand the things.

LOL.

Alas, I’m still on mush, mostly. Lower dentures still hurt like the dickens . . . still have to schedule surgical extraction of upper teeth.

Sigh.
