The 8.8 one in Chile apparently shortened the day by a millisecond, and moved the earth approximately 3 centimeters in it's orbit. Or something like that.

I know this kind of stuff is being reported, and I'm not bashing you, but that is the dumbest thing ever. How the hell would people know this?

One little earthquake in one country can move the whole earth off it's axis? Really? I'm guessing when the world was created the earth was spinning all different directions and flinging off it's axis every hour or so. :rolleyes:

The one in Chile shortened the day by 2.6 millionths of a second. The one that caused the big tital wave (2004?) shortened the day by 6.8. Get busy living or get busy dying! :rotfl

I don't know how they know it, but surely it's measurable. I just find it fascinating. :huh

Issac Newton calculated the procession of the planet's axes standing on a plot of ground in 17th century England, with tools no more sophisticated than a telescope and a sextant. So yes, it can be done.

Yup. So it sucks when you hear ish like that (heard it before you put it in here too). Last thing you wanna hear is that you're living somewhere destined to be destroyed in the near future. :lol:lol:lol

Yeah, I know, it is scary, I know a lot of ppl in S.F, and I would be depressed if something like that ever happened.

Thats a great sig Devil :lol

:lecture The king of sigs :bow
