Now I really feel I cannot be the only one who thinks this many earthquakes are pure coincidence. Maybe everyone else says I am just being a douchebag who probvably thinks the sun still revolves around Earth, but man it would be nice to have someone back me up on this, that this is reall a bit much for coincidence.

Wouldn’t such multiple releases of built-up plate stresses be better than all of them occurring all at once, as in the plate edges settling with a single, gigantic crash?

The first magnitude 6.4 quake was followed by a 7.0 shaker. An hour later, a 5.1 magnitude temblor hit, followed 20 minutes later by a 6.2 rocker.


After tremor and shock this writer might be out of earthquake synonyms

Can someone explain briefly how quakes and aftershocks differ? How do they determine whether it’s a quake or an aftershock?

Let me be first to say... It’s Bush’s fault ! Oh wait he is not President anymore. So therefore it MUST be BP’s fault right?
