Dis,
Much thanks for you well wishes. I want to go into those areas but they are currently heavily restricted and would need a special pass to go in. It's probably already crazy enough as is. I doubt that picture was mine, but it may be a buddy of mine who was trapped in a mountain village only a few kms away from the initial epicenter. I can't tell without seeing it.
Chengdu (with the "g") is the name of the place and is the capitol of the Sichuan province. It is about 60miles away from the epicenter of the first 7.8 quake.
