Earthquake!

Most of you know that an 8.9 magnitude earthquake hit off Sumatra; this is the most intense earthquake to hit in 40 years. There is no telling how high the death toll will eventually be, but it is likely to be over 10,000. Here is the earthquake bulletin page at the USGS. There seems to be massive activity all around the Pacific rim.


Comments:
CNNi has been covering the earthquake and tsunamis all day. The experts say it was a slip between plates that had to have been hundreds of miles long. As terrible as this event is, think what it would be like if it happened along the San Andreas fault in California. Unimaginable.
