I see there was another [earthquake](http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/7254325.stm) near Banda Acheh.

I presume the worst that would have happened would have been the panic and the tsunami alert. Let us know what things are like there!

He posted in [another thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=456736) early this morning, so presumably OK.

Hmm, seems I got the wrong day, and the quake was on Weds not today.

Don’t panic! Don’t panic! ::runs around::

Hey thanks for asking. I’m actually in Jakarta this week, but it means a lot that you thought of me.

Just keeping an eye out for ya!

I’m sure even if you’d have been there you’d have been fine, but having been through several serious tsunami alerts in Thailand, I know how nervewracking it can be.
