I guess i have nothing to add here that hasn't already been said but it's so glad to learn that all our NZ'ers are fine and that no one has been killed as a cause of this.
We don't really have this to worry about here. Infact the only earthquake i have ever felt was in the last couple of years and it was a very, very, weak tremor. Nothing more. At the time the foundations of my house had been shaking mildly due to a dodgy water main under the house that would shake whenever a heavy vehicle such as a bus or a truck would pass over it and so i was used to this. When we had the tremor, i realised it was much more violent than usual but actually assumed this was all that happened until i couldn't sleep and put the news on. That was seriously how irrelevant the whole thing was and so i can't even comprehend something like this, personally.
Vanilla's account of it is really scary. It's actually a little heartbreaking to read.
