Current Events

The Earth is a very active place.

I wonder if my prediction is beginning to show its ugly head.

25 killed as earthquakes hit Iran and China
AN EARTHQUAKE measuring at least magnitude 5.9 shook a sparsely populated area of southern Iran yesterday,

The Chinese quake destroyed hundreds of buildings, the government said.

The official Xinhua News Agency said the magnitude 5.7 quake hit on Saturday morning and was centred in central Jiangxi province's Ruichang city near the border of Hubei province. The US Geological Survey reported the quake had a magnitude of 5.5.

There has been some relatively large quakes lately.

Smaller ones in Hawaii: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/recenteqsUS/Maps/HI2/19.21.-157.-155.html

I wonder if there is a correlation between the atmospheric pressure and the magnitude and or frequency of the quakes?
