Default Re: Massive earthquake strikes Chile

Steve in Brazil;

Any kind of pictures you can get from Concepción I would appreciate. I will post anything I can find thats new, as well.

I lived there during the 1960 9.2 quake! It was a mess!

This one is now rated an 8.8.

The Richter scale is not linear in nature. a 7 is 10 times stronger than a 6, and so on.

So this quake was about 15 times stronger than the one that hit Haiti.

A CNN report from last nite:



More as I dig stuff up.

Chile, lo siento con my corazon. Buena suerte.

Fred
