After the Northridge quake we felt them for a few days.

https://earthquaketoday.net/venezuela versus https://earthquaketoday.org/venezuela -- different counts.

Depends what you call an earthquake and what's an aftershock.

On the earthquaketoday site notice how the quakes line up with the ridge where the fault is. A nice " target="_blank">illustration's available online.

They've compiled a list.

The window is closing to find survivors.

The US has sent 2 of its 28 urban rescue teams. The other 26 is needed at home I guess, maybe to rescue dying ducks from the Reflecting Pool.

Trump has consented to sacrifice about 2 hours of bombing Iranians for humanitarian aid to a country where a quarter of the population is already dependent on it thanks to US sanctions and interference and now made poorer by the theft of its oil.
