We have a report from the fj.life.in-japan Dynamics Officer that chuckers has
exploded. Flight director confirms that:

>I think rather than "Quake" a more appropriate title would be "QUAKE!!"

Yeah. Glad you got out and made it home. Our branch office in Kawasaki (20th
floor of Tower Riverk in front of Kawasaki Station) was totally trashed, but no
injuries -- they're now on schedule for the rolling blackouts so our business is
going to be messed up for a while.

>Death toll isn't much but I am sure it will rise.  Maybe not as high as Kobe 
>but that is only because of the population density difference.

I thought so, too, but I think we both spoke too soon -- casualties may reach
five figures in Miyagi alone.
