Uh, I'm probably taking this the wrong way, and if I am, please excuse 
the flame, but...

ARE YOU SICK!?!  Either you don't know what this group is about, don't 
know a thing about Quake the game, or you are just loony.  I think it is 
absolutely ridiculous to associate a game with a real life event that has 
killed over a thousand people and growing.  Quake isn't even about 
earthquakes in the first place!  Man, next you'll be posting about the 
Tornado in northern california on the flightsim newsgroup.  Wake up!
