My cell phone ringing on Saturday morning on April 20, jarred me awake.
It was Luo Gang, a survivor of the 8.0-magnitude Sichuan earthquake that destroyed his hometown Beichuan on May 12, 2008. More than 20,000 of Luo's fellow townsmen were dead or missing on that tragic day.
"Do you know that there has been another quake in Sichuan?" he shouted. "I just told you such disaster would probably never happen again in my lifetime. I'm a bloody wuyazui!"
