Earthquake in Chile

"going down". They get earthquakes all the time. So do parts of America.
Earthquakes aren't new.

 

On a related note.

Since then, Japan has undertaken drastically increased earthquake countermeasures, as you'd expect from any developed country so prone to destruction.

Oh, and for further reference.

 

it

it says that its 70 percent

 

It's still hypothetical, as Tehuber rightly said.

 

just like most forecast

 

Technologically, weather forecasting is the least advanced thing we have, and always will be. We can't read the future, we can just guess by what we see around us.

 

how did we get to weather?

 

I was making a point.

 

forecast doesnt necessarily need technology

 

A point which you don't understand. I'm off to bed.

 

This damn quake shifted the earths axis. The days will be slightly shorter, and it changed the speed of earths rotation. 2012 here we come!

 

Just to add to the first bit...
there was another one in turkey this morning...
bringing us pu to the total of 4 medium to large earthquakes in the last month (Haiti, Chile, Taiwan, Turkey)
