Excuse me? We are not pussy! 185 people died! Loved one's died! We are not pussy. Yeah, maybe other countries severed worse, so? So that means we should not care abotu our city? That we should not cry over our lost people? That we shouldn't care about our very old, loved cathedral? What you said, hurts so much. I wish you were there, in the heart of the city, watching people get crushed by buildings. Having no water or toilet.

Oh how I wish.

Time difference between America and New Zealand.

Oh my god. Youtube is an American site... when you upload things it displays their current local time.

I have a very efficient way to help the ChCh victims: rescue workers should teach the locals how to EAT the broken rubble. See, that way they're feeding the people and cleaning up broken wreckage at the same time! (I've been through a 7.4 in CA in 1989 so I'm allowed to make earthquake jokes.)

2nd comment; I should have said "I was out side the Rangiora Police Station with a VCR tape that would have proved to them that the device did exist and the group using the devices set off the 22/2/2011 EQ". Threat made at 7.41 in the morning to do the EQ, me out side the police station at 12.51,video on You Tube.

this EQ is 1 of 45+ that I have spoken about on cam-corder(HD) before the EQ's were done using the inventions of a Nelson, NZ person. I was outside the Rangiora Police Station with a VCR tape that would have proved to the police the device did exist. I have a portion of the cam-corder recording on You-Tube as well as other EQ threats before the EQ's are done.
