It takes a long time to build homes and shops … some structures are historical monuments … yet all can be destroyed in an instant by a natural disaster. The video is heartbreaking and feels a little like a ride through a ghost town or vacant movie set. However, the machinery, etc. (great use of the boxcars) and renewal efforts are a testament to mankind’s will to exist and resilience.Penelope Noteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01965692242969563279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-838644232340959537.post-89792235111471922412011-11-11T00:47:07.035+13:002011-11-11T00:47:07.035+13:00That is a massive amount of reconstruction.

It was little over a 5 on the scale but there was a good deal of damage because none of the buildings were ever built for quakes.Commander Zaiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11000824454124236774noreply@blogger.com
