The earth’s rotation currently slows at a rate of 1.4 milliseconds/century, so this quake and the Sumatra quake have erased a couple of years’ worth of frictional slowing.

Is this theoretical or empirical data? I'm guessing theoretical.

If an earth quake can accelerate the rotation with a certain movement or change in placement of mass, isn't it equally likely to slow the rotation with an opposing change from a different shift in tectonics? And how the heck does NASA measure this change so deep inside earth's crust? I'm a bit skeptical.

Is GPS satellite data precise to the microsecond? I don't think so.

watch the UN and Obama will now say that if Global Climate Change Provisions willnot pass the world will come to an end. See the days are getting shorter because man caused the earthquake in Chile. They will say it was a man caused disaster. The same strategy for Universal Health care. better known as the New World Oreder one World Government

“Likely” means a guess... or is this contrived and false science... like the ipcc practices. I hate BS and science has become a huge stinking pile.

Earthquakes are getting worse since the environmentalists cracked down on the disposal of used motor oil. Once upon a time, we could return used motor oil directly to mother earth, from whence it came, and this kept the tectonic plates well lubricated. Since the EPA and other tree hugging agencies imposed rigid laws and heavy fines against this practice, the plates have been running a little rough.

Mother Earth just gave us less time to sleep. When Mother ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy.
