Earthquake links

People may like to read this great article about lessons learnt after Haiti and here is one suggestion from an organisation Mal and I are consistently impressed by and trust.We are still safe here in Birtamod. I grieve for Nepal but have a sense that while devastating, it could have been much worse.  The trip home may be...um...interesting. And when I am in Broken Hill again, forgive me if it takes a while to realise I don't have to run from the room at the 6.45 blasts.
