So where were you when the big one hit?

OMG EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!!!!  AHHHHHHHH!!!!!

So, yeah, it was kinda cool,but largely a non-issue for most people. Just a lil' shakin'.

I'm just waiting for all the awesome conspiracy theories about Muslim socialist aliens from planet Snooki conspiring to kill us all and take over the world.

Is boobquake an epic fail?

So I guess a 6.9 earthquake (haha, 6.9) means the whole boobquake thing was kind of... um... a bust? 

Thanks Sam for the tip!

Chile's quake may have shifted Earth's Axis

Seeing as this was the 7th strongest quake ever recorded, I guess that's possible. So far, 2010 sure is off to a crazy start.

I know many of you gave to the Haitian relief efforts, but please don't ignore Chile.

Thanks Mike N for the tip.

Can Animals Foresee Natural Disasters?

The idea has been around for centuries. The scientific evidence grows in favor of yes it seems. 

I don't think it's likely that animals have an extra uncatagorized sense for these things, but it's logical that through their superior senses of hearing, etc they would have a lot more warning about this stuff than we do.
