Yes, some day I'll look back and laugh :P Ann Sanfedele wrote: > Dave - I hope your excellent personal reportage and photography are helping > you vent and giving you some comfort. Thanks and yes, it's definitely having a therapeutic effect. The cordon was going to be lifted from the central city at 5am today but that's been delayed. The poor guys assessing the safety of buildings keep having to revisit them due to the aftershocks. They've had a huge job and they must be exhausted by now. I should be able to go in later in the day and I'll carry a camera. Just keeping an eye on the weather but it's meant to clear this afternoon. > Good thing to have someone close to you with you, too. > I hope your boss doesn't google you, though ( or maybe .... ) Yeah I was thinking that, I've probably said too much but it's too bad, it needed to be said as it's part of my story and a big contributor to my mental state. There's a lot more to it than what I've said. The aftershocks are definitely reducing, I've probably only felt 5 or 6 of them during the past 24 hours and only 2 of them have been significant. Actually one of those I felt was two aftershocks at once, one from each end of the fault. The ones from the closer end are jarring, some of them are being located within the outer suburbs only a couple of miles from my house. The movement isn't too bad, the noise is something else... sounds like a (small) bomb going off. It's quite interesting to be a part of this but it is a bit tiring :) Seems to be getting a lot better though.
