Interesting read: Any geophys people out there?
How would you go about hiding the fact that the Earth has been struck by 64 major earthquakes in one week? According to the website of the United
States Geographic Survey (USGS), there were no less than 64 earthquakes recorded globally between 19 September and 25 September, 2004. These were no
lightweights, either. Take for example a magnitude 5.9 in Fiji, 5.8 in California and a 5.2 in Indonesia. Most of the others hovered around the 3.1 to
5.0 mark - enough to cause substantial damage in most instances.
69.28.73.17...

I also have noticed the increase in volcanic and earthquake activity. It has not become mainstream and will not. Why initiate panic. Deal with it when
it is over. I agree!
If you are aware, do what you believe is necessary, and GOD will do what he wants, IN short, do not be concerned!

LOL... 3.1!
Those cause damage to only very badly built buildings.
Also remember that energy released in 6 mag quake is ~32 times that released in 5 mag quake.
So comparing amount of them to mag 6 quakes and saying mag 5 and weaker ones as big quakes is bull# with big B.

encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com... magnitude scale
Descriptor Richter Magnitudes Earthquake Effects Average Annually
Micro Less than 2.0 Microearthquakes, About 8,000 per day
not felt.
Very minor 2.0-2.9 Generally not felt, About 1,000 per day
but recorded.
Minor 3.0-3.9 Often felt, but 49,000 (estimated)
rarely causes damage.
Light 4.0-4.9 Noticeable shaking of indoor 6,200 (estimated)
items, rattling noises.
Significant damage unlikely.

They don't seem to be wanting or trying to hide this. If the media doesn't pick up on something, it's usually because they don't think it'll
sell. Geological activity is sort of like a baseball game. A big game in the US gets attention. A big game in Tokyo may or may not get a 2 second
popup on CNN's news ticker.
