Glad it was an easy fix for you.
I wanted to take this time to remind everyone to check your cables and power cords. With winter coming along and heaters turning on, I have seen more then my share of sparks, melted cables and trashed equipment due to close proximity to various types of heaters along the walls and floors.

I think we all love a happy ending and I'm especially glad to hear that the people of the islands didn't fare too badly.

It wasn't that big a deal here. Could have been though if the quake started a Tsunami but this one didn't.
Actually with the power off till midnight, Karen and I set candles about, listened to a battery powered radio, grilled fish that would have gone bad anyway and then watched our neighbors shoot off fireworks.....later on, well, ah hem, you know. It turned out to be sort of romantic. This is Hawaii after all. ;-)

Sounds pretty rough.
Good to see you lived through it. :-)
