There is news of an earthquake in Peru. Has anyone heard from RMS? According
to RMS-travel, he's en route from Lima to Chimbote with Mario Ramos "sometime
on Aug. 15".

Please let me know ASAP by phone (512) 699-7175 any time.
Fetchmail is wonderful, but is not prompt.

Thanks.

The place is 420 KM NORTH of Lima[1].

Earthquake has hit parts of Peru, towards South of Lima[2].


This is certainly a major natural disaster. Let us pray for the dead;
and pray for the surviving and injured - they have a tough time ahead.
