>I think that the problem is that the areas that this tragedy hit were some of the poorest in the world(snip)
From this point, no tragedy will occur with U.S. or any 1st. world country?? On any country placed between those earth's boards named tectronic (or something, I'm not sure for the name) can occur exactly the same.. And zilions, bilions (or just one who knows) of people will die.. There is no protection for this !
