#3  #1: ALso, minor Quakes reported in USA ala MISSISSIPPI-ALABAMA region???

Must be exceedingly minor, absolutely no mention of any Quakes on the local news, nothing felt, and I'm about on the ala-Miss line(20 miles)
Unless it's something in the northwest corner, and we'd get news even then.

#2  yahoo: an air force unit reached Yinchanggou, a scenic spot in the mountains north of the Sichuan provincial capital of Chengdu, finding landslides had swept away rustic small hotels.

"There are several hundred hotels, including farmer homestays, probably 800 in all. They are all rubble now," Cai Weisu, an official with an air force unit from the Chengdu Military Region, told Sichuan Television. Most of the dead are tourists, he said, but did not identify whether they were foreign or Chinese.
