    So is nobody gonna mention this earthquake?

    I'm on shaky ground when it comes to my expertise on these things.


    But a 8.0 magnitude has hit off the coast of Chile. At a very shallow depth too.


    People running for the hills as we speak, in fear of getting their feet wet.


    Isn't 8.0 like really fucking huge?

    8.0 means that a ton of energy was released, but initial reports don't look too bad. The details of how the fault moves are important. If the sea floor moves side to side, the water just sloshes around a bit. In Japan, the sea floor moved up and down, which created that horrible tsunami.

    Turns out it was an 8.2, which is actually a good deal bigger than an 8.0, since it's a logarithmic scale.

    In addition to what Barry said, these earthquakes are also nowhere near as devastating if they don't occur near heavily populated areas.

    Polls indicate that the Missing Plane story will get better ratings.

    Well I'm closer to it than anyone here at PFA. But still far enough not to worry. I turned it on the tube so my Latin wife could watch all the news about it in Espanol.

    My casa is far enough away.
