I am now in a trouble, because I lost a bet: if the telescope was finally built in Chile, I would visit
the telescope and take in situ some pictures and post them here!!! I think I will have to start saving some money for this right away!!!
Enhorabuena al pueblo chileno por este magnífico paso tecnológico.


It will be great to see you here by 2016 ! hehehe

Thank you again!! :D

Yes, the E-ELT will be impressive, I have some friends already working on the construction area (site testing). I can't wait to see it finished, haha!!

That was great news for my birthday :D

I hope to be around more often. You can find me on facebook too, (leave me a small message with the friend request) ;)

There was another large aftershock (or new quake?) yesterday, registering 6.9 on the Richter scale, which has set off another sequence of very strong aftershocks in excess of 5 on the Richter scale.

They are certainly getting a very bumpy ride over there!


Yes, the epicenter was my city!!, in fact there were 4 quakes (6.9 - 6.7 - 6-0 and 5.4 plus many others during the day) , all of them in less than 30 mins. It was chaos, since it was 11:30am and everyone was working and kids were at their first week at school. (our school period starts in March).

I was alone at home, so I couldn't know about my family for more than 40 mins. Workers went home, malls were closed and my city was declared as "disaster area", which means we'll receive governmental help.

As you can see, things are still pretty bad here. This happened on March 11th, when President Piñera was taking the reigns from Michelle Bachelet...that's gotta mean something!! http://bit.ly/ab5Nf7

maybe get one over to Tiare in Chile as well . . .


Is your (and Misfit's) friend Tiare related to Misfit's friend on QCN--
Andres???

Looks like Andres' pewter was the one that caught it--
initial data should be on that hard drive...



I don't know Andres, is he the only one in Chile who has that sensor?? Chile is always having tectonic episodes, there should be at least 3: for northern, central and southern regions...

Hello my friends!!!

First of all I want to thank all your concern on this tremendous Earthquake that affected more than 15 cities, practically half of my country. Despite the fact I stopped writing on SAH forums for a couple of years, I'm still impressed that you remember me.

I want to thank to all of you for your concern (especially on water supply) after the Earthquake. The magnitude on my city was of 8.2. Historical buildings are about to fall, and streets look like a post-war scene. Unfortunately since the damage was so strong in other cities, my city is somehow ignored by the media. Luckily my house was very resisting and water supply was normalized two days later.

Lastnight Chile ended a TV Telethon called "Chile ayuda a Chile" collecting $30.212.775.555 (CLP) and having an historical hug of our president Michelle Bachelet with the elect president Sebastian Piñera. A way to show that our country is united. (http://bit.ly/aUAkWj)

The worst part was not being able to communicate with my sister after the quake, telephone lines and electricity were gone. So we had to wait until dawn to see she and her son were ok. We listened to the news with my the radio option of my cellphone and then we used my brother's sollar cell to turn on a small and old radio. That encouraged me to learn about ham radios and perhaps become a radio amateur, but in order to do that I would need equipments and they seem to be too expensive!! LOL. I would like to learn more about Quake-Catchers as well.

After a week of this tragedy, we can see a united Chile, people are even returning the stolen equipments and they feel strong enough to reconstruct and create a better Chile. This is definitely one of the most life changing experiences.

Love you all,
Tiare Rivera.

Hi Blurf,

I'm glad you noticed the site. I have been working on it for some months already, and now I got published on the site.

There is a special category with FULL translations of several BOINC projects, which can be found here: Mundo BOINC I'm really looking forward to improve the site :D

supuestamente solo perderias la unidad que estas trabajando.
Una vez reinstalado BOINC, deberias entrar con la cuenta que creaste, y te bajaran nuevas unidades de trabajo.

Muchos saludos
