Aye Syl . . . there is "mood" in his use of colour . . . bright and vivid . . . also dark and forlorn . . . there is a part of him in every work.

Yeah, I think I'm the only current poster from SI New Zealand. Liquefaction is a problem here because the central city is on very soft sediment. Hence the odd car goes sub-terranian.

Just got another hefty shock (4.7) as you posted . . . should appear on the drum (above at the bottom of graph) shortly.

Don't think my brain is working this morning. What does KLASS mean?

LOL . . . I have this bad habit of substituting letters unnecessarily (sizemik = seismic) Hence, Klass = Class . . . as in being a bad boy and swearing will get you banned if you persist.

Thanks for asking TYA . . . no fatalities . . . about 45 injuries . . . many of the damaged buildings in the red zone (CBD - cordoned off since Feb 22nd Quake) have collapsed as a result of today . . . more liquefaction and rockslides in the hills.

Here's the seismometer drum . . . it's in real time and updates automatically.

Here's some piccies from today . . .

The city is actually undergoing a slow death . . . over 7000 quakes since last September

As an old saying goes, 'What shall be, shall be.'

Very profound philosophy 1975 . . . thanks for the reminder.

In fact, that's exactly what everyone here has been saying . . . as their city falls around their ears.

Are you from round here?

Update from Gadget

its about a year since i was last on here so i thought i'd come and say hello and let you know how i'm doing.

i think my last post was announcing that my children, emily and christopher, had just been born over 3 months premature.. life has been a rollercoaster since then, emily spent 3 1/2 months in hosptital and christopher spent 5 months.

they were very very ill for a long time, and christopher in particular was very unstable often needing to be resuscitated several times a day until just a few weeks before he was discharged.

Nice to make your acquaintance Paul . . . I'm new here.

WOW . . . what a road you guys have travelled.

Both are vey happy babies and spend a lot of time laughing.

Pleased the joys of parenthood are still being found.

All the best for the future for you all.

I'm following your threads, studying them carefully for language and content, and hope to be cussing like a sailor shortly

LOL . . . I'm not a frequent cussa . . . but it's nice to be "free" to do so when appropriate . . .
