It's okay, it's only a 987.

Edit: I wanted to add, I hope everyone in Mexico City is okay, it seems to have been a very bad earthquake.

32 years ago today +/-9,000 people died in an earthquake there. Today the death toll is over 100 and climbing. In remembrance of the previous quake, they had just had an earthquake drill a couple of hours prior to todays quake. They need our prayers.
