January 17 - How soon we forget
Thanks, Jon.
Yes, so much attention now on Haiti, but how the earth shook at 4:31 am, and how dark it was without so much as a moon lit sky. People came together, block by block to help one another. It was following the 1994 Earthquake that the bankruptcy court started allowing some of us to call into court for appearances, because the freeways were down (the 5 and 14 had collapsed cutting off Santa Clarita from the rest of LA. And, one year later, on January 17, 1995, the earth shook again, but this time in Kobi, Japan. We should not forget that we live in Earthquake country!!
