Earthquake!

At 4:45PM Taiwan time, we had an earthquake registering a 5.3 magnitude. It lasted about 10 seconds. Since I can't understand the news reports, I dont know if anyone was injured or any buildings went down. But a 5.3 isn't that big and life around here is normal, so it's probably also considered minor here in Taiwan. Much like California, we don't worry about it unless it's over 7.0 magnitude.
