Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, the heartbed of Islamic terror in the Indian Subcontinent, is surely cursed.

I think whatever was due to break broke the first time.

"There were no immediate reports of any casualties or damage."

That's probably because there's nothing left TO damage. I couldn't believe the strength of some of the *aftershocks*. They're worse than a lot of initial earthquakes.

Nearly 60 earthquakes between 4.2 and 6.4, averaging a little under 5.0 have occurred there for the first seven days following the big one. I haven't checked how it was running for the past week.

How much rumbling does it take to turn a mountain into liquid sand?
