Hi, dear mylot friends.
From August 11 an earthquake about 7 Richter happened in southeast of Japanm, it has past two days, fourth aftershock hapens in Japan Shizuoka, Nagoya Aichi where i live in is near Shizuoka, i feel three to four slight aftershocks, but such seven Richter is not light in Tokyo, slight quake happen in Japan hundreds times a year, five or less big earthquake a year, so Japanese often teach and realize how to reduce the harmness of earthquake, there are few death always except Hanshin earthquake disaster in when thousands people died.
I often heard the absurd rumor that Tokyou will happen super earthquake again as Kanto and Tangshan earthquake in recent, it make me laugh, however, if the super earthquake happen as prediction is realized, i will run away.(laugh)
Enjoy mylot!

Wow a second one. I am sure glad to see it does not have you scared,because I would be.But as you stated this is normal for you in your area of the world. When people say that something awful is going to happen,I always try to ignore it.I have always had the belief that if something catastrophic happens ,I will never know what hit me.
Be safe my friend!

Hi, thank Capsicum share my page, the earthquake and aftershocks just are not very serious, but Japanese are always so sensitive and bored, my fellows and I gossip about the rumor of earthquake in the entire day.but it also has an advantage, Japanese are strict and careful about various accidents and disasters, we are making more effort to reduce the damages.(laugh)

Japan is sitting on a fault line that is very active. She is also graced with a volcano called Asama. Those two features make Japan a very geologically active country. She isn't alone in this jittery activity. California, Oregon, and Washington have been wiggly as well as they've Volcanoes and fault lines under them too.

Here is a bit of information about the Ring Of Fire that can help you understand the reasons why you are feeling the Earth beneath you rock and roll so much of late.

Its amassing something of this sort can be taken lightly. Its not that we couldn't care less but since we experience it too often we some how get accustom to it. We're in a storm belt region, we pay more attention on ones of great magnitude and somehow sort of shrug away minimal ones. But we'll sure go frantic on earthquakes. In any case take care my friend.
