Earthquakes.......

Today instead of being woken by my alarm clock I was woken by an earthquake. Not the best way to wake up but I guess it's more effective than an alarm clock. My friend who also lives in Tokyo but a little north of me was woken by the earthquake and an alarm. He thought Japan was getting attacked at first.
Japan also upped the disaster level to 7 for the Fukushima plant 200 miles north of Tokyo putting the disaster on par with Chernobyl despite a much lower risk considering the plant didn't actually blow up and burn for weeks.
Throughout the day more small quakes hit in areas surrounding Tokyo.
