#1 Luckily it hit Japan and not a Muslim country. Thereby saving tens of thousands of lives.

#3 The US has an airbase at Misawa, in west-central Hokkaido. Friend of mine there said that there was some "swaying and rocking", but no serious damage. They're still operational. Earthquakes are notorious for being totally unbiased in who they kill/maim/murder/mangle/injure, unlike some religious and political groups.

#4 I understand Old Patriot.... tell me in which Muslim country there would have been no deaths from a Mag 8.0 quake?

#5 Dar - Fair Use is indicated to document that reproducing the article on Rantburg is not meant to infringe upon the copyright. Some blog sites have had suits filed against them for posting of entire articles. If you EFL and reproduce any embedded copyright notice then you have complied with the "fair use" court rulings - or such was your stated intent - almost as important in court. Just trying to protect Rantburg from the zealous types... as it rises in the blog ratings (and Glenn at Instapundit gave a very nice plug yesterday, which will help) it will appear on the radar scopes of those who might think to target it. Windy explanation - sorry!
