That is awful! I hope the missing people are found alive.

A lot of lost lives and lost old architecture. The earth can kick our ass any time it wants.

Correct, except old architecture is usually the problem in earthquakes.

BREAKING: Seismic 6.6 magnitude earthquake rocks central Italy

A MASSIVE earthquake has hit central Italy, according to the US Geological Survey

The mayors of the quake-hit towns, Ussita and Arquata del Tronto, have described the devastating effect of this morning’s earthquake.

“It’s a disaster, a disaster!” mayor Marco Rinaldi told the ANSA news agency. “I was sleeping in the car and I saw hell.”

Like Rinaldi, many people were sleeping in cars or had been evacuated to shelters or hotels in other areas following aftershocks on Wednesday from the earthquake in August.

In Arquata del Tronto, which had been devastated by the earlier earthquake on 24 August that killed nearly 300 people, mayor Aleandro Petrucci said: “There are no towns left ... Everything came down.”

Is it normal to sleep in your car in Italy?

They're worth more than houses in Italy.
