The earthquake destroyed WhisperGen. Are you serious?

That is terrible. I was hoping they would catch on.

Yep, their HQ was right in the middle of the worst of the distruction but their production site is off shore (Spain I think), it will take more than an earthquake to knock them over I hope, have not been in touch with them of late, but I'll see if I can find out more. Ian S C
The building is badly damaged, and will be demolished. The company is working in tempory buildings. Some of the staff have lost their homes, but all are OK.
PS., I live at Darfield, about 40K away from Christchurch, and the site of the main 'quake last Sept.

That's really terrible. Hope everyone is OK. Especially the engineering team.
