In a high rise building in downtown Tokyo and I notice a voice over the loudspeaker. I realize that it just said Tokyo has been hit with a magnitude 6 earthquake!

Ok, listened a bit longer (and much more attentively) to hear he rest. "This is an emergency system drill" -_-; Whew.

Made it downstairs to see a big group of office workers who have left thier offices to atten the drill. They even had a doll to help train people to use the AET refibrilator system. And what sharp headwear!

Earthquakes are a part of daily life here in Japan. Do you have them where you live? Are you prepared? Reminds me to check my emergency bag at home.
