Thanks you made me feel a little better.

Yes I know they dont have much money, but they need to work on their houses, make them stable and what not to stand an earthqake. They use brick to make their houses, they should think of using wood. Like I said Earthquakes dont kill people, buildings do.

I read last night that the # of dead people went up to 50,000 and that they had found few people alive in the rubble. I lost the link so I can remember everything right now.
