So basically the Chile quake perturbed the globe just a smidgen more than it would have perturbed itself in a year sans earthquakes.

It may not seem like much, if even true, but I read somewhere that it may affect GPS signals and space craft communications, as these things rely on very precise measurements.

Does this mean we’ll have palm trees growing in the northern Wisconsin forests?

"Ice Age rebound."

I'm surprised Algore hadnt had this term stricken from the scientific lexicon. Unless it can be spun and interpreted as another way to 'splain globull warming.

"According to our calculations, the quake moved Earth's figure axis by about 3 inches (8 cm)," says geophysicist Richard Gross of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.

WE'RE DOOMED!!!

We need to send Al Gore more money, or at leasty give him more awards.

This unloaded the crust and mantle of the Earth, allowing the planet to relax or “rebound” back into a more spherical shape.

Yes, evidently it did. All the sidehill wampuses here are running straight instead of in circles.

It’s interesting the way they describe the mechanics of it. They say that when a tectonic plate moves beneath another to a significant degree, it causes the earth to contract a little and therefore spin faster (like a figure skater pulling her arms in and spinning faster). But the Earth also pulls apart at rift centers such as the mid-oceanic spreading centers. I wonder how that affects the spin rate?
