Tim Wang's eLearning Blog

A few hours ago, some one left a comment on my blog, that's how I first found out about the earthquake. Here's the original post:
"At that time, i was sleeping in my bedroom.My school were in Chongqing. At first, i thought i were having a dream ,but after a short time, i realized it was an earthquake. It was much noise outside.All the people flooded from the building. I just took a trousers with bare foot and jump out of my bed. Everyone was nervous and anxiety. It looks like the end day of the world. After a few minutes, people remembered calling the friends or families how they were. But they found the cell phone cannt be used. After a long time, may be half an hour, the communication was recovered. You can see nearly every one were calling. Some were afraid, the other were exciting for it was his first time:(. An hour later, people came down, but a few stay outside still. How terrible the noon is!" - 05/12/08 @ 02:44 (Vancouver Time)

This is a rather power earthquake with a magnitude of 7.9! Equivalent to 250+ Nuclear Bombs... The death so far has been over 8,600.
