Earthquakes are part and parcel.

Looks like the Pacific Ring of Fire is acting up.

Scary stuff.

All that stored energy has to go somewhere.  Once the plates slip and settle down, we'll enter a relatively quiescent period again.

Just watch out in the meanwhile.  Mother nature is more PO'd than Saint when a thread gets post helled.   :timebomb: :timebomb: :timebomb:

Reports are the nuclear reactor is without coolant and is starting to leak. I hope luck is on their side in the upcoming days otherwise there's going to be a 3...2...1......

This is the only thing that I would agree with Ark about. Knowing you have earthquakes and building nuclear reactors there anyway  ???

ark_ader:

Danny is right, there seems to be a lack of intelligence involved to build 50 reactors in a quake based country like Japan.

Did you see the explosion at the troubled reactor?



This does not look good.

The Japanese has had some experience with radiation, so I am sure they will contain this the best they can.

Though I do not know what a nuclear explosion would add to the seismic issues going on around the island.
