1. Wow -- that's just plain scary |

Isn't it? Wobbling the axis, moving islands that far.
This article calls this quake " the fourth-biggest earthquake in a century" -- does anyone know when and where and how big earlier quakes were? It just seems to me that 9.0 or 9.2 (whichever they finally decided on) is the biggest ever in modern times, but I keep hearing not.
