Rumblings...
Call me crazy, but has anyone noticed a pattern to these recent earthquakes in the Pacific? Hmmm, let me see if I can recreate the chronology here:
Oct. 9/06 - North Korea tests nuclear weapon
Admittedly, we're a little scant on evidence about whether or not it was successful, but there is evidence that an underground explosion of significant magnitude occurred. TNT or nuclear, it happened.
Oct. 13/06 - Earthquake of 5.3 on the Richter scale hits Japan near Tokyo.
Oct. 15/06 - Earthquake of 6.6 on the Richter scale hits Hawaiian Islands.
I know very little about plate tectonics, but I do know that Japan is on the Ring of Fire and that Hawaii is considered a "hot spot." Seems to me someone should at least be asking the question of whether or not there is a connection. CBC? CNN? Reuters? Anyone???
And if I lived in LA, I might consider a brief out-of-state trip in the near future.
