The Japan Earthquake: Update 1

   So I'm back home in good old Ichihara.  It's dark.  It's quiet.  And there is no end to the annoying aftershocks that keep shaking us all back to reality.
   Anyways, I thought I would post some pictures and footage.  Expect more.

   Took this video a couple of hours after the first earthquake.  The blasts from the COSMOS factory on fire were more frightening than the initial quake.  WARNING: There is some strong language used.
