8.8 Earthquake in Chile

[CFH]

That is fucking huge. Looking at the video on CNN, it doesn't look like the damage is nearly as bad or as widespread as in Haiti. I'd imagine that has to do with the depth/location of the quake and the fact that Chilean buildings are probably much more solidly constructed.

Scary stuff though, they've been telling us that we're all going to get killing in some cataclysmic quake here since I was a kid. I just hope it waits a year or two longer so I can finish school and get out of town.
