euh, excuse me... I work on the 33rd!!

huh, i surprisingly didn't feel anything. i had heard there was another one around between 6 and 7pm or so, but i was out running so....

Yep, that was a pretty good one. On the 10th floor it was rocking pretty good specially in an old building.

21st floor. I beat you Gen, but lose to Paul.These new buildings tend to wobble a bit too. I'm sure it's to save my life, but it doesn't feel too pleasant.

Heh, I was only on the fifth floor, but it still got my attention. Gotta love how casual Tokyoites are about this stuff. For the last medium quake in October, I was in a large open office with about 25 Japanese people. Only one of them took cover under her desk, and all her coworkers laughed at her.

Wow, tough crowd...
