Yes we did, remember April 22nd, 1991, Limon earthquake.. I lived in Limon at that time, it was like sitting in a washing machine during the spin setting, unbelievable.. it last 20 seconds

muy cierto de hecho, el de Limon fue de 7,7 en la escala de Richter, es decir fue casi 100 veces mas fuerte y causó daños en un área de 8 000 km2, que incluyen el 80% del territorio costarricense. Fue sentido desde Tegucigalpa (Honduras) hasta Ciudad Panamá y la isla de San Andrés (Colombia). ......

y fueron 48 los fallecidos en Costa Rica con este violento sismo y 79 en Panamá de acuerdo con la UCR y el gobierno. Estos datos fueron publicados también por la prensa nacional en ese entonces pero del pobre Limon todo el mundo se olvida rapido....

Hi,

I am really sorry about the experience that you just had down in CR, regarding the earthquake up there. CR has never suffered something like that in the past. I know that you were frustated due to no helicopter showing up, up there, but the priority was about the ones that could have survived to the earthquake, previous to rescuing the ones that were alive. CR never expected something like that.
