Reply #25: Will human run out of luck? [View All]

Indian ocean quake is the sinking of sea bottom at the earth's cracks that is the most dangerous cause and the only earthbound one leading to the earth's axis of rotation to shift so that the equator would tend to move closer to the down shift area. Luckily, the mass sinking of sea bed happened almost at the equator in Indonesia.

I think the 9+ quakes in AK and in Chile maybe had no affect to the pole shift and were less dangerous, because they were the near coast land slide or in inland quake.

The trough tsunami's catastrophic depends on how big sea botton is sinking. If the mass sinking of mantle along the earth's hot spots in Pacific or the Azores in Atlantic then it will be a world wide catastrophic. The casualties of over 100,000 Indo-Asian are so horrible that I think US should have a world plan asap to deal with these real threats to save ourselves and next generations of human kind
