I was on vacation in China at the time, and am posting my own notes on my blog at betterfiction.com. You say here that you didn't know that earthquakes could be predicted. The animals predicted the Sechuan quake. Hundreds of flogs fled their ponds, filling the streets. Cobras at various snake farms became agitated. At least, that's what the news there reported at the time. If this is true, we should find some way of harnessing their abilities and save lives. Great account.

You're doing what I guess a lot of us *wish* we could do and it's great to get real reports from off the ground. Oh, and I'm bloody cross with the Guardian :( Keep up the good work and the reports!
