Quoting: Anonymous Coward 412873I saw a TV reporter examined the powderised concrete that was held together only by thin strands of steel wire. One of the most traumatic video clips I have seen is that of a collapsed school, where a very young child's hand was sticking out from the debris still holding a pen. I'm smarter than a rock |

Freddy Freedom User ID: 429261 United States 05/24/2008 01:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It is a sad fact that when Communism turn into a partial Capatialism then business becomes very corrupt. They take kick backs and pay backs and money under the table and buy and sell on the black market. So what you see is another sad result of communism. The builders probably were payed for one type of building but they built a crappy low quality cheap fake. Anyone wonder how Putin got so rich so fast. |

What a difference of 1 make. We should now view on another alternative design in housing and other structures - as earth is facing more and more deadly catastrophes in the future. |

Lots of building collapsed as well, but not as massive as China has. Quoting: fireflyDG 389010Perusing at those photos, I am just wondering if China was really struck by intensity 7.9.
