[QUOTE=Nurdock;28550181]That 0.1 still makes the Alaskan earthquake twice as big as this one.[/QUOTE] Then what is the 9.5 1960 Valdivia earthquake?
those tards on twitter are just massive trolls, ignore them
[QUOTE=Adius Shadow;28550291]We fucking hit them with two of the most powerful weapons humankind has ever developed. TWICE, killed tens of thousands of innocent people in mere seconds. Yet some bigoted fucks think they deserve payback for Pearl Harbor. I wish the yellowstone volcano would erupt right here. I would most likely die but I can only hope it would tear these kinds of people to shreds.[/QUOTE] They would more likely choke to death on ash and the poisonous gases released, but there's always the other two super volcanoes in America which would go off as a result of the eruption. [editline]11th March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Spetzaz;28550299]Then what is the 9.5 1960 Valdivia earthquake?[/QUOTE] About 5 times more powerful than this. The Richer scale has the power of the earthquakes times by ten every increment of 1.

[QUOTE=archangel125;28550177]Because Republican America is uneducated - and operates under the delusion that it is the leading authority on everything. Also bigoted. Naturally. Liberal America, sadly, accommodates Republican opinion on principle, and so gets drowned out by the idiots.[/QUOTE] Please don't believe all Americans are like this. For everyone in America, I apologize that a few ignorant Americans were given internet access. -an American
[QUOTE=lead_farmer;28550660]Please don't believe all Americans are like this. For everyone in America, I apologize that a few ignorant Americans were given internet access. -an American[/QUOTE] That's why I made the distinction between Liberal and Republican America. I'm sorry, but for me, the word "Republican" has become synonymous with "Corporate bitch", "Ignorant Bigot", and "Religious zealot".

I'm beginning to think that nuclear power isn't such a good idea after the problems the Japanese are having with their reactors.
[QUOTE=Kingy_why;28550737]I'm beginning to think that nuclear power isn't such a good idea after the problems the Japanese are having with their reactors.[/QUOTE] It generally is - unless you're prone to massive, earth-shattering quakes.
Ah hell, I feel bad for Japan.
[QUOTE=Kingy_why;28550737]I'm beginning to think that nuclear power isn't such a good idea after the problems the Japanese are having with their reactors.[/QUOTE] I'm a huge proponent of nuclear power, but I have to admit I never liked the sound of having nuclear reactors in a country where earthquakes are extremely common and often powerful.
[QUOTE=Nurdock;28550350]About 5 times more powerful than this. The Richer scale has the power of the earthquakes times by ten every increment of 1.[/QUOTE] Holy shit the 13 earthquake following the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs - the ground must've just disappeared below them.

The tsunami hit my town (in California) about two hours ago and a few of my friends and I tried surfing it. It was hardly noticeable where we were at, but managed to capsize some dingies that were moored in the marina.

[QUOTE=Spetzaz;28550794]Holy shit the 13 earthquake following the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs - the ground must've just disappeared below them.[/QUOTE] Just worked that out, it's roughly 300,000 times more powerful.
Kinda pissing me off some people are saying they're going to pray for Japan. Its a good intention but it isn't going to do anything,

This reminds me of that movie "Sinking of Japan".
