For those wondering, I’m downtown Santiago on the second floor, and we didn’t even leave the building (supposed to be safer?). We’re in a 10+ story building, next to a 15+ story building. People in the building next to us all came outside, but have now gone back to work. Same for our office. Thank God for stricktly enforced quality building codes!

Oh, I hope you stay safe. Is there anything left of Chile now? Seems all will be gone soon. How in the world can the people there exist with these continual quakes and the damage? It must be horrible.

Hang in there. Hopefully these quakes will be transferred to Hollywood where they belong.

I wish EWTN could change their Lenten proggramming and put in a program about the Catholic History of Chili.

They do a better job IMO than the history channel on history.

No hidden socialist/marxist agendas when coming from EWTN.

Quite the oppisite, not shy about calling a spade a spade.

Wow - are you still doing ok? This was a 7.2 earthquake and nothing much “fell” where you are? What about other places in Chile?

Prayers for the protection of the people of Chile despite these earthquakes.
