7.6 equals 36 A-Bombs. This is what I read today - see my other note -- as it is, the Chinese newspaper/TV stations are saying (1) water system to industrail park is busted (2) no power (3) the harbors will need 6 months to repair and (4) for months there will be strong aftershocks and as I quoted the newspaper in my other note - "THEY CANNOT START OPERATION because if they are online and there is another major aftershocks (the estimate is for at least next month, there is VERY large chance of 5 and even 6 magnitude after shocks - they just had a 6.8 and 6.2 just this morning) - then ALL CHIPS ON THE PRODUCTION LINE ARE GONE" - than they have to recalibrate and restart and throw away all the chips online. Bottom line, manufacturing chip is a very delicate business (clean room and all that) and you don't do that when the ground is still moving and the ground is still moving -- they recorded over 1,500 aftershocks so far. What do you think is a 7.6 (upgraded to 7.7)? It is no kid's play. I am watching the stock but I am also going to use the proceed to help the island. Aside from the human tragedy, the fact remains, at least from all the Chinese news agencies that I have read so far, it will be quite a while before things will be back to normal.
