This is really serious for Japan & the whole world. They probably have no way of knowing if and when a big event will happen.

Hi Supersajin

This earthquake has been listed on USGS, however, they have listed it as a 5.8 Magnitude.

I checked the stations as well as I did the Japan Meteorological agency and the earthquake Measured in at 6.3 Magnitude with them.

Stations that picked up this earthquake measured it from 5.7 to 6.9 Magnitude with the Majority measuring this earthquake 6.0 or above.

USGS can't be trusted.

Web Bot prediction is that Japan's nuclear plant will explode July 10 2012...but don't think many of the Web Bot predictions have come true.
