There was an earthquake at about 7 PM. I was on my bike and didn’t even notice but it was covered live on NHK’s national news (which I had recorded) because it was Level 4 in Kikuchi. The magnitude was 3.2.
By the way, sorry I haven’t been feeding much news to this page recently – computer problems. I’ve done a “clean install” (starting over with a fresh install of the OS and then adding programs and data little by little) and am finally getting back to normal. If there are any Mac users out there, I can share that this experience has led me to add something called Carbon Copy Cloner to my backup arsenal. Time Machine is good but sometimes it’s nice to have a bootable clone. A clone can be a “time machine” in a way that the Time Machine app can’t – it can let you go back, via a clone, and use a previous OS version and any apps that stopped working with an update.
