A lot of high magnitude 'quakes this year.  Wonder if this sort of thing happens relatively often or whether it's just because detection and reporting has gotten better.
EDIT: Death toll is two now. Still low considering the magnitude. |
Another "proof" of global warming. I was just wondering if rising sea levels could add further strain on plates, but I don't think it would be significant.
