Heard about it this morning.I think we have people from Chile in here and I hope everyone is OK...

Man it was the worst night and morning of my whole life. My girlfriend is from Chili, she now lives in Canada with me, her mother and brothers/ sister are also in Canada. But she was in Santiago de Chili for vacation, I received a call during the night from my parents, they were worried, but I didnt even knew yet. They told me what was going on, I was destruct. I mean its an 8.8 eartquake, there is going to be way more than 76 dead. The images was awful, street tear appart by gap of 3 feets, a lot of bridges collapse. But at around 10 AM I received a call, her and her family was at their farms in the most southern part of Chili (Punta Arenas), safe. But damn, it was the worst hours of my whole life. Probably cried a gallon of tears. My simpathy to others that live of have family in Chili.

What matters is that she and her family are safe!So dont even think about it man, it's all over now.I had a similar experience from some fires in 2007,So I can understand how you felt.Just Give her a big hug when she returns :)

Thx for the kind words, I was going to hug her anyway, but now its gives me one more reason to do so. Now I really wanna see her, luckily shes coming back in 2 weeks.
