        Last thing the poor buggers needed, right on Christmas. 500k's away from me but i have a brother right in the thick of it, and he's had enough. There's been over 7000 shakes there since Sept last year and even the shrinks are loosing it now.

          Walker 5, maybe your brother should move, I hear Kobi Japan is a nice town. Just trying to cheer you up a bit. First my company sent me to Los Angles, Ca. I went thro several out there, then my company sent me here, St. Louis area, fairly close to the New Madres fault. So nice of them!
