    yours was probably alot worse than we had. for us it was just a bit of shaking, not too bad though. nothing that really moved things, just a vibration

    I can confirm that all main backbones are still up. We are still rocking 230GB/s connectivity on 13 backbones! So while the earthquake may have impacted some of your work days it will not be impacting our play time
