How the heck did I miss this one? Was I sleeping under a rock?

I don't recall hearing jack about this fall until now, although Dirk
obviously reported on it months ago.

It seems that Central America falls get no respect. Guadalajara was
overlooked also, maybe due in part to the Carancas event that happened
a week later.

Thanks for the heads-up Mike on Comayagua, and good luck in Novato.

Best regards,

MikeG
