'One More Jolt and Everything Is Going to Collapse'

By Alexander Smoltczyk in L'Aquila, Italy

http://www.spiegel.de/international/europe...,617754,00.html

When they went to bed on Sunday night, the lives of L'Aquila's inhabitants were still normal. But catastrophe struck as they slept. The survivors of one of Italy's worst earthquakes in modern history are now in a state of shock, and nightmare scenes continue to unfold around them.

The sign marking the entrance into the charming city of L'Aquila collapsed just as abruptly early Monday morning as the walls of buildings inside. Before the tragic earthquake, this capital of Italy's central Abruzzo region was awakening to the beauty of spring: The almond trees were in full bloom, and the snow-capped Gran Sasso massif glittered on the horizon like an Italian Kilimanjaro. On Monday, though, there was only horror, helplessness and exhaustion.

Long lines of now homeless Italians could be seen wandering the streets, pulling battered suitcases behind them.

Flashes of light bounce off a neo-baroque living-room mirror lying -- improbably undamaged -- in the ruins.

Not to dance on anyone's grave, but.. this earthquake and the reports coming out around it mention '53' a lot, 1953 was an important year, and this is close to Rome, much like the December 12 flooding in Rome itself. It's all going straight against whoever's at Rome. The epicenter is the city of L'Aquila, 'The Eagle'! As the article says, 'One More Jolt and Everything Is Going to Collapse' for the unholy see.

one day i heard 150 dead, the next 1500 injured.. another 50,000 homeless... heard these things mostly on the radio at the day centre... i dont believe its coincidence i heard these numbers instead of later reports of more.

15 & 5, numbers involved in this...
