We have been having some excitement - an earthquake that had its epicenter in Mandalay, Myanmar which is not far from us - about 300 miles away. Luckily our workshop is solidly built and had no damage. Our staff spent about an hour outside to be sure there were no after shocks and then we were back to work.
Bangkok which is much further away had more damage - partially as they have more high story buildings. And partially as the soil is looser as it is near the water. We have decided to work on being better prepared for the next natural disaster. We already have well water (and a backup source) and lots of space - about 8 acres so we plan to setup emergency shelters for our staff and family. Solar power may be in the plans also...
