I hope in some way the world comes together to help each other in these massive recurring earth quakes.

it's no natural disaster, the UFOs did it.

[Mindy]

I bet these earthquakes wouldnt get this much attention if it werent for 2012.

[strangelove]

All these earthquakes.. COINCIDENCE?

THERE ARE NO COINCIDENCES!

They would, thing is they have been so recurring that people feel its funny, clever, or obviously 2012.

Are we having more earthquakes?
It sure seems like it. Since the beginning of 2010, there have been four major earthquakes around the world.

1. 7.0 in Haiti on January 12, 2010.
2. 8.8 in Chile on February 27, 2010.
3. 7.2 in Mexico on April 4, 2010.
4. 6.9 in China on April 13, 2010.

All of this seismic activity has left some wondering if earthquakes are increasing in frequency, or if it just seems like they are. According to an expert from the United States Geological Survey, the recent activity is not unusual.

Geophysicist Dale Grant spoke with CNN and remarked that while it may seem like quakes are getting more frequent, the numbers are about average, historically speaking. What has changed? The quakes are striking more populated areas, which has led to more damage, more deaths, and, as a consequence, far more news coverage. It might seem like we're getting a lot more earthquakes, but they're actually just causing more damage due to where they are striking.

yup

[Blindfire]

The Russians have a tectonic weapon.

The Russians have a tectonic weapon.

Or maybe its the terrorist!

[CrimsonNuker]

Ouija board did it.

Bla bla bla...the recent activity is not unusual.

yup

Our more recent earthquakes arent unusual. We get tons of them regularly. The difference now. Is a lot of them are happening in more populated areas.

Wow, I didn't see that in cpinney's post at all

[TheDrop]

Actually, more populated areas are getting hit by earthquakes, which gets more news coverage. The earthquakes we have had this year isn't unusual at all.

I think that's repeat # 3 now... People need to read the thread before the same exact theory is posted 3 times.. which comes from an Expert Geophysicist..

[EvGa]

It's because of more populated areas being hit, thus more media coverage... nothing unusual about the number of earthquakes.

[William-CL]

It's part of god's plan .

[Swindler]

Meh all this media attention is because the earthquakes hit the more populated areas.

You win.

This thread reminds me of the 4chan epic about tires that don't sing when you put chains on them.
