Glad to hear you folks escaped unscathed.

As these things go, only two deaths is way ahead of the curve, but still
a tragedy for their friends and families. Sad thing was, one of the
persons ran out of the building only to be hit by a car.

Hopefully their will be enough international aid to go around and help
rebuild. Scary times...

I read that there were at least 100 injured in Mexicali and that the US is
offering aid.. Haven't had verification of either, though..
