One last entry.
The TV networks here in AZ are now reporting the quake as a 7.0 centered around
Olympia. There was a commercial plane about to touch down in Seattle when the
windows in the traffic control tower blew out. They were able to tell the pilot
to 'pull up immediately' which he did. That would have been quite a
ride.....NOT!
