Just letting you know I am fine here in Kobe, Japan
Thank you so much for worrying about me, I already received many private messages from you guys, but I am just OK and so as my family, most of my friends. The earthquake attacked the other side of the country, (Tohoku area, north-east part of main land) and I live in Kansai area, west area of main land. So I didn't even feel the earthquake, and so far no damage has been reported in this area. But as many of you have seen on TV or News, the damage of earthquake and Tsunami of Tohoku area is extremely huge.
I don't know what I can do about this…
Maybe there's not much you can do right now, Junji, but I'm sure you will be involved in some charity concerts in the near future. Taking good care of your wife and family is important, too, isn't it?
I'm at the Tokyo Hilton and was here for the earthquake.I can tell you most buildings in the US would have gone down.I could not believe how much these buildings were swaying
Good to know you are unaffected - though you must have felt it. I was in Beijing during the 1995 Kobe earthquake and flew back through Japan and flew over Kobe which was still burning at the time ( so I know you already went through one ok). We also had our own here in New Zealand recently. Is the world falling apart?
Great news my friend!!!! So glad you and your family are OK. I understand the United States has sent some warships to Japan to offer any assistance we can. I'm sure that with a disaster this large it's hard to remain untouched. We will keep you in our thoughts.
great to hear some possitiv news from Japan
and you most have feld it since here on the other site of the globe in Denmark
we messured 5mm waves on the neadle , slowmotion moovement of the ground
Glad to see you are OK, Junji. I didn't feel anything, having been sound asleep when it happened. Man, that's a lot of devastation there! I've been through two big ones here in SoCal. We got a big whoop-te-do 3-foot swell on the beaches near where I live. I'm about 18 miles from the Pacific Ocean as the crow flies.
Wow, I am really glad that so many of you come and visit here, commented, gave me your warm hearts. Thank you again! The biggest concern right now is the nuclear plants. (or many other things of course).
It's great to hear that you are OK.
I'm so sorry for your countrymen that have suffered so terribly.
Please keep us informed of their needs and if there is any way individuals can help.
Junjii I just heard from My wife that you seems to have to deal with a meltdown too
I do hope Japan can do something so we don´t end up with another Tjernobyl
