April 7, 201016 yr I don't think there are necessarily more than usual, I think there are just more happening in populated places. You may be correct...and with a population that is increasing at such a high rate, that would make sense statistically.
April 7, 201016 yr Author According to the USGS 4 of the 11 strongest since 1900 have been within the past 6 years, and that does not include yesterdays quake which was a 7.8, or the one in Haiti. Here's the link. http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/world/10_largest_world.php

Here's the link. http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/world/10_largest_world.php Thank you very much for the link. :thumb: The article misleads the reader. It tends to make one think that it is significant that those four earthquakes together are significant. It isn't that four the top 10 recorded earthquakes or, even more alarming EVER, have occurred within the last six years. Just that four of the 11 in the last 100 years of our planet's 4.6 billion year history (that's almost 46 million centuries NOT included) were within the last six years. I just have a bone to pick with science related articles that draw a conclusion that does not statistically exist.
