Dear rabble: Please continue to pray for Japan and her people. Miyagi Prefecture, where the March 11 quake hit, just got nailed again pretty hard a few minutes ago (23:46 local time)with a 7.4 magnitude quake. There is a tsunami alert in progress and people are being told to evacuate coastal areas.

They felt this one all the way up into Hokkaido, and we felt it down here in Yamanashi only at about a magnitude 4.... The house was shaking pretty well though and I've shut off the gas until morning.

Thanks!

Jim
