One comment that one guy at work had about this was along the lines of aftershocks, where there is a ripple effect that radiates out from a big one affecting seemingly unrelated areas ... not sure how much I subscribe to that theory, as one would think that the 'aftershocks' would be less intense then the original, and, so far, 8.3/8.8 sounds *alot* higher then anything I've heard of recently ... My thoughts and prays go out to you and your family ... ---- Marc G.
