8.8 Earthquake hits Japan

From what I hear, there are at least 3 fires in Tokyo and most gas and phone lines have been shut off. All trains have been stopped as well.

I was there 2 years ago. Thats sad. I'm sure they'll get through it, and build some super sophisticated Anti-Tsunami shield after this.

Apparently, it's been extremely active there for the past couple of days:

44 earthquakes, mostly "off the coast of Honshu, Japan" since 03/09/2011. Maybe ActiveX is right.

I don't believe the seismologists when they say that earthquakes and volcanoes in different regions aren't connected. Push a bit over here, earthquake over there...push over there, volcano over here...they're all connected.
Chile just had another large quake a few days ago as well.
