Breaking: Second Major Earthquake Strikes Indonesia

reply to post by JayinAR


What region had two 7.0+ within a day recently?

reply to post by Phage


Don't try and argue your way out of this through depth of epicenter or anything like that.
You didn't even know how many quakes had occured in the locale.

You tried to tell people that this didn't even happen.

Now define region. How small an area?
Sorry, not being a smartass. I just forgot to ask the first time.

reply to post by Phage


Indonesia.

reply to post by Phage


I'll tell you that a region is DEFINATELY confined within a 6,000 mile radius, Phage.
Don't try and argue a point you lost!

Be a damned man.
And yeah, you are being a smartass.

I was going to actually try and give you this in miles but how bout we just say Southern Sumatra.

reply to post by JayinAR

Indonesia. One was 7.6, the other was 6.6.

reply to post by Phage


Reported on my end as a 7.0.

reply to post by Phage


Southern Sumatra. That doesn't equal the whole of Indonesia..

reply to post by JayinAR

So California and Italy are in the same region?

reply to post by Phage


That isn't what I said and you know it.
You stated, upon hearing about this latest quake, that Sumatra was 6,000 miles away from Samoa.
Therefore they weren't related at all.

You completely misunderstood the OP and now you are trying your best to argue out of it.

Edit to add - And whoever starred that last post of yours is a moron. (snip it mods)

ok, lets define a region as the size of sumatra. approximately 470,000 km²

en.wikipedia.org...

These quake are all on the edges of the Australian lithospheric plate.

Which would relate likely to the Peru deep quake. The Pacific plate is pushing under the Indo-Austrialian plate. Subduction. The Nazca and Cocos plates are on the other side of the Pacific plate.

Where that tremendous amazing months long volcano went off in South America last year. Along the edge of the Nazca plate.


The Lithosphere

September 9, 2007 8.5 followed 12 hours later by a 7.9.
How's that for major?

Local authorities are saying these quakes are totally unrelated.
.... personally I find that hard to believe.

there's a lot of big red/orange circles in this 'region' of the world.

I'd say that's major, thanks! Can you please share with us the source? I'd like to know where that happened at. Thanks for taking the time to find that!

Could it have anything to do with the time she was going on about how Jupiter had ignited into another Sun?
Or maybe the time she tried to convince us that due to something some nutjob down under had written, the Sun had the biggest sunspot ever on it?
How about her predictions and predilections regarding 3 Gorges Dam in China collapsing during the last solar eclipse?
Earths Magnetosphere is collapsing?
Crop circles telling us huge solar storm on it's way?
Vegans being sucked into inter-dimensional portals?



Need I go on?

I'm sure there are more examples than that....SHE'S been at this a while.

So it IS coincidal with the Peru Quake.

That does make four.
I'm an idiot, but I guess we can expect another quake in where? New Zealand?
South Island?

Maybe off coast.

If not there it will be miles and miles east of Australia.

I mentioned her threads in the geo-science field.
I'm sorry, but I didn't get past your first sentence.

reply to post by Phage


I'm more interested in why you are still trying to make a point after you showed a lack of understanding of the OP.
I've done it before. But I try to be a man about it and admit my error.
