  • It is not about which country is the next to be strike, it is how responsive each responsive and how infrastructure prepared each region. It is about instrument technology, emergence planning and resource backup.

    How about some shock trigger inflating technology like air bag for structures and fly over bridges and roads so to slow down and soften impact of building falling down?

  • okay, so lets review. they thought the world was going to end during medieval times when the bubonic plague hit. they thought the world was going to end in 1900. they thought the world was going to end during ww1, the great depression, ww2, and year 2000. now we think the world is going to end because of some dudes rantings in the 1500's, and because a barbaric civilization calender ends? c'mon world! the worlds going to end by human hands, not natural disaster!

    Verdaderamente un magnifica producción en honor a esta catastrofe.

  • HAHAHA. Like in Forest Gump when he said Jenay.

  • lower, but longer, and more intense.

  • yep indeed, it was about 70-80 miles away.. that's pretty far. so in actuality it might have been much lower, if they want to make a direct comparison with Haiti.

  • I believe its close enough for us to be concerned.

  • Not exactly correct,we don't get quakes in Australia.

  • I question whether the building codes spared the Chileans. I think fight2Bfree is right about the epicenter being further away than the one in Porta Prince. Besides, the U.N. building in Porta Prince was built to earthquake standards, and it collapsed, killing dozens of U.N. workers.

    jmorris, you are wise to question whether this is the End Times, as many didn't get the time era right. If mother nature keeps pounding the planet, I guess we'll know for sure - take a last good vacation.

  • chee'-lay,  not chill - laaaay'

  • CBS YOU FAIL news is such stupid these days
