Well... although I am up here in Auckland...the Christchurch quake has just been felt emotionally....A former RNZN mate whom I joined with was one of the people working in the tower of the cathedral removing the the pipe organ when it collapsed...and has perished...that's NZ for you 2° of separation here...
