Did anyone see the interview on tv with the Tope guy?

"How do you feel?"
"Alive"

I think that is my quote of the day.

Journalism at its best. Did the journo think the crushed people were going to say anything else?

It's NZ media being awesome again.

The 4 times I have flicked the tele on for an update, it's been the same shit- "people crying out in the street", "screams coming from the street" etc. NZ media need to be hung for such obvious scare mongering. It's disgusting.

I was actually glad to see him and his mother there, when we were evacuating she was screaming on the street and crying saying "my son is in there!" and well who do we see, that lucky sob survived. I think he was just massively camera shy.

If anyone is without power and wants to crash somewhere with power my house is open just flick me a txt or pm

Im glad you are safe! :D

He seemed to be in shock and he didnt know what had happened to the other people in the hospital. Hopefully more people made it out of there.

Death toll is going to rise sharply from what I've heard

Reports of two buses with people actually in them crushed

Thoughts go out to everyone who is there or has friends/family there (I'm glad you're ok Codex I haven't made the trip down to molest you yet)

Worst fucking time of the day to have a Quake too

For those afraid of image searches....
