So I’m guessing the Mexican President is busy now chartering a plethora of buses to bring the victims to our borders where relief workers are ready to ‘mule’ them across our border....

This little program helps one see activity and 'patterns' of earthquakes all over the world, at a glance.

Simply go to the link, download the program (takes about 2 seconds) then just run it.

IT is an awesome program and has many fascinating controls. Spin the planet, zoom in/out, control the magnitude of EQ's and timespan.

Install VMware Fusion. Drop in a copy of Fedora 20. Install the "Wine" windows emulator, then run earthquake-3d inside. It runs fine in Wine. Most of my laptops from the recycle bin are running Fedora.

Epicenter on the west coast, quite a ways from DF, maybe 300km. Ominously, no shake reports from Acapulco yet.
