Moderator, please give TechStuff a final warning then ban.

Cap-Z-ro indicated elsewhere that he has no authority on any thread but his.  He suggested, I believe, to PM hartiberlin himself.  Any Member can.

I ignore religious material from TechStuf nowadays.  I've lived around people like him in the Midwest and Southern States, so I know how they can be regarding their beliefs.  They have a tendency to resist change and/or sometimes challenges in that regard.  I've had it happen to me.

That is 20 earthquakes that are at or greater than 6 this month!

I've done some more research on earthquakes.  The average month had 12 earthquakes that are at or greater than 6 from 2000-2009.  There have been 54 earthquakes that are at or greater than 6 so far this year!  There is a 31% increase in 6+ earthquakes per month this year than in 2009.  The average month in 2009 had 13 6+ earthquakes.  So far in 2010 the average month has 19 6+ earthquakes.. 20 so far this month.

I've calculated these using numbers from the following site.

Since 1990 there is an estimated 803,159 earthquake deaths worldwide.

With respect to your Reply #138,
Another one hit near Manila at 6.0 on the Richter scale.  The Philippines have been hit frequently, right?
