    5.9 is pretty pansy compared to the Haiti and Chile (which was insane) earthquakes. Keep in mind it is an exponential scale.

    Is there such a thing as a domino effect with earthquakes? The Chilean one was so powerful that I half expected it to affect other fault lines in other regions of the world and maybe cause earthquakes elsewhere
