Quake in Indonesia

Perhaps it is just that I am paying more attention, having people that I care about now in various parts of Asia, but I heard about the recent earthquake in Indonesia, right on the heels of the one in Japan, and I hope that it is not a new and frightening trend.

I know that eastern Asia has always been subject to such phenomena, but is this much this soon a new thing?

I hope that all my blog friends are okay. I wish everyone could be okay.
