You know the drill, Alia, you know the drill.

I'm thinking of you all. Hoping you are safe and unharmed; and I know beyond a shadow of doubt, checking on each other, and helping each other out.

Egads, I can yet recall a typhoon and even then were The Powers That Be, calm, and directive, no hype.

My earthquake drill training began in what would be pre-school here in America. There's a photo of me in my school uniform with hat the day I got a prize for fastest good reaction in an earthquake drill. I had to be close to age 4.

We had an earthquake drill song we sang once we'd made it to a safe spot. I realize now, that song was taught us to be sung after we'd gotten to safety, so that we could be found if things really got bad, and that the song would comfort us should we have to wait to be found.

Yes, FRiend, I know the drill. And I know you are with very good people in such a circumstance.
