It hit the capital of Chile, but I don't know where Santiago is.

Santiago is the capital of Chile. At least close to it anyway.

I was wondering since technoguyx lives near Santiago.

He does!?!

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/28/world/americas/28chile.html

I think the Haiti Earthquake was 7.0 and this is 8.8

But the haiti earthquake was so bad because of how bad off they were from the start. As far as I know, chili isn't nearly as bad as Haiti, so the damage etc won't be as bad

A tsunami went to Hawaii  sad

I don't think it was very big. Like a few feet.

I think it was like 9 feet or something. But not 20 or anything extreme.

My mom told my Chile gets a lot of earthquakes so they have stronger buildings. And they don't have as many people living in the area. In Haiti, their buildings were weaker and it was in an area where tons of people lived.

It's "Chilean".  wink  And right now I'm safe, don't worry.

Some weak buildings were damaged/destroyed, and the lights were out in the whole city for about a day. Later in this day the water system stopped working too, right now it isn't fixed yet.  hmm

In 1985 and in the 50s (or 60s?) I think.

All I can say is that I had had enough of all the disasters! > sad

Re: Earthquake in Chile

We had an earthquake over here in Kentucky when I was in third grade. Slept right through it.

I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

I followed my parents to the living room. You'd think going outside would have been safer, but the earthquake stopped by then.  hmm
