re: #55 Spare O’Lake
Would “billions” of deaths have satisfied their blood lust?
I don’t know…but I do know that we’re seeing plenty of big earthquakes these days and with plate tectonics being what they are, the pressure released in Chile could cause movement elsewhere. Chile’s in a subduction zone, though, which means the Nazca plate goes under the South American plate. Whereas our own San Andreas fault is transformative, with the Pacific Plate moving north at 2 inches a year (more of a grinding).
I loved studying this shit in college. Should have majored in it.
