Earthquake

There has been a 7.8-magnitude earth quake in China, with the epicenter in Aba prefecture, Sichuan province. The quake was felt 930 miles away in the Chinese capitol, but there have been no reported damage or injuries in Beijing, though tall buildings were evacuated. So while there has been terrible destruction in Sichuan province, we can be confident about Mark's safety. Six after shocks have been reported and tremors were felt as far away as Bangkok and Shanghai.
