>>That is a huge quake. Luckily Japan has very strict building codes.<<

Well, they have a different approach than Los Angeles. I hope Japan’s worked for them.

In any case, both Tokyo and L.A. have the best Earthquake resistant building codes in the world.

Supposedly Tokyo took this quake fairly well.

I say this as I am leaving for my office, at the beach, on the 25th floor in Los Angeles.

I’ll be there when the wave hits around 7AM here.

If you don’t hear from me .... :)
