One of the Indonesian Seismologists I know, thought it lasted a little over two minutes. I will keep asking.

I was just wondering if you have had time to find out the answer to my question regarding the duration of the earthquake in Padang? I would really like to know, though I havent been able to find this info on the internet. It seems you are my only hope :).<br /><br />Thanks, AliceUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05022989860568217803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199830678971482883.post-24956674928594045142010-06-02T01:58:24.825-07:002010-06-02T01:58:24.825-07:00Kia Ora Jamie

Genuine stories of genuine lives.<br /><br />Take care in Sri Lanka!<br /><br /><br />JamieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602741689946125871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199830678971482883.post-75760418838072018892010-06-01T00:38:38.805-07:002010-06-01T00:38:38.805-07:00Hi Marja

We, and the younger generations, need to be decerning about what is a vailable on the internet. Frankly, there is a lot of dreadful propaganda out there along with a lot of factually incorrect data.<br /><br />As I said in the posting, we need to learn how to sift the chaff from the wheat.<br /><br />Best regards<br /><br />BobBob McKerrow - Wayfarerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13832128768908667724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199830678971482883.post-54888285309735734892010-06-01T00:23:49.199-07:002010-06-01T00:23:49.199-07:00What about good old TV I think Tv is a very narrow...What about good old TV I think Tv is a very narrow channel of what is going on the in the world<br />The bad things in some part of the world other parts get completely ignored and for the rest a lot of junk.<br />I think the internet gave us access to so much information, good and bad truth and fiction<br />I've increased my knowledge about<br />different cultures enormously by reading blogs, learned to write<br />get in touch with people I normally would never in the world get in touch with. I met several of them and sorry I didn't get to meet you.<br />I think with a good portion of common sense you can figure out what is right or wrong.<br />Sometimes it is a bit of a worry that people spend to much time on the net, I think especially for our young people that there brains develop totally different and ther social skills will decrease but everything has it advantages and disadvantages.Marjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17458942200244031009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199830678971482883.post-57960292734617208302010-05-31T18:45:29.723-07:002010-05-31T18:45:29.723-07:00Kia Ora Robb, How is the hip coming along ?

Some of the satellite channels are frightening such as FOX, with the one-eyed tripe they dish up.<br />I hope people l;ike you, Pohangina Pete, Jamie, Paterika, Marja, Aspiring Donald and others can continue to write blogs with passion, with accuracy about things we care about.<br /><br />I am off to Sri Lanka for two weeks on Thursday so am looking forward to that.

These lowest common denominator politics are having a real impact upon America. I find it frightening, but it seems we want to blame "someone else", or more to the point those whom might look different, or have different beliefs. Even here in New Zealand talk back radio in particular is becoming a real breeding ground of the majority hysteria.<br /> Sifting the chaff from the wheat sums it up indeed. Have a great day Bob.<br />Cheers,<br />RobbRuahineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09398484733805119294noreply@blogger.com
