This is Dick's recording of the 2nd big aftershock today - originally registered at 6.9 and later downgraded to 6.7. Sudden motion sensors surrounding the hard drives in Macintosh computers are used to record the seismic motion of earthquakes.

Be sure to check out the older posts for earthquake photos.

Thanks to all for their concerns for our safety and well-being!

Aid for Chile


Many have asked what they can do to help. The outpouring of support has been heartwarming. Hillary Clinton visited on Tuesday, bringing 25 satellite phones and promising additional aid in the form of field hospitals, pontoon bridges, etc. Chile Ayuda a Chile, a fundraising telethon, has surpassed their goal to raise $15 billion pesos ($7.5 million USD) with much international support, especially from artists and musicians. If you are able, please contribute to any reliable international aid organization with a program to help Chile. Chileans are a hard working people and it is remarkable how they are already moving forward.
