a german tv station just said that they set up a peoplefinder or something. where you can request information about people ... anybody knows where i can use that thing? friend of me is in tokyo right now and i can't reach him

[Tatsujin]

I think that will take some time till you can find any informations about tourists. Especially tourists.

We didn't really feel it here in Kyoto - the first I heard about it was when people from home (the UK) phoned me asking if I was alright!

Looking at the coverage on the TV though, it looks like it was pretty damn big, especially if it's having such an impact as far away as Tokyo.

I don't know many people in that region of Japan, but I hope for people here who do that everything is fine.

I'm never going to chat someone and say, "ah, another Earthquake... " and underestimate it again. That one started really weak. That's what freaked me out. Then, 10 minutes later w/ the nuclear siren going off and another after shock hitting didn't help.... then rain clouds & helicopters everywhere was strange.

My heart goes out to the poor suckers who have thought I was an idiot to cycling to work all winter.

[wheelaa]

Hope all our JP members are ok.

Over here in California there is an active Tsunami watch going on. I'm far enough away (up a long river into a valley) from San Francisco Bay that there is extremely little chance of anything happening.

I think all of us have checked in. I hope that those of you trying to get in touch with family and friends in the main areas have luck and that nothing bad as happened to them.

What about Eric?

[GaijinPunch]

Magic Knight (who has given up forums I think) lives in Miyage. :/ I'll try to buzz him. Eric should be safe as a kitten, as he's down south.
