#2 "An apartment block and two shops collapsed, several roofs caved in, winery vats burst and gaping holes opened in roads."

Oh, the humanity! ;-p

#4 I've noticed that there seems to be a kind of reflectivity to the ring of fire, that is, when a big earthquake happens on one side, it can behave like a trigger to another part of the ring, after a short delay. For example, just a short time ago, there was an big earthquake in the Aleutian islands.

Trouble is that there is so much activity on the ring, that it is hard to tell.

If I didn't know any better, I would say God was making a small lake of wine.

#8 Winery vats burst, that's what they get for using oak. They should use plastic, oak's too brittle.

#9 Here on Guam at least, in addition to EM atmospheric detonations/flashes I'd also visual observed [reflected]vertical EM/GRAVITY BANDS occurring. INTERESTING > ALASKA + NZ + last INDON QUAKES > lATTER VERTICAL BANDS WERE DARK-COLORED = "BLACK/DARK LIGHTNING"?, EVEN ON A CLEAR-SUNNY GUAM SKY.
