6.3 Mag. Earthquake near Iran's Bushehr nuclear power station
2013-04-09
Another message from Allah, guys. Y'all might want to start paying attention.
I'd suggest that Halliburton's Earthquake/Tsunami Division just about has the kinks worked out. Perhaps it's time to try a magnitude 8 test?

#11  Three people dead from a 6.3 doesn't say much for Iranian building codes

Casualties resulting from relatively small earthquakes is a long-standing tradition in Iran, especially in the smaller cities and towns. Something they share with Pakistan.

And yes - it's due to a lack of building codes (and no small amount of pay-off if building codes do exist.)

Well, add in Israeli marksmanship and I'd guess just about anything you can imagine.

Iran has building codes? (Other than In'shallah.)

#5  Then they would question the wisdom of building a nuclear power station along an active fault line.

#4  Thirty people dead and 800 injured. If that had been in LA or Tokyo people would have shrugged and gone about their business.
