    Between the "photo op" this morning and the earthquake this afternoon, Gawker has beat all the major news sites at breaking. Suck it Fox News guy.

    The link says it was a 5.6. These things get revised, so maybe that's what happened.


    5.6 is fairly large but in a city built for earthquakes, it probably wouldn't result in much damage, if any. (5.6 is not classified as "major", which is one thing I remember from living in San Francisco... where I lived through a 5.6.)

    This is a bit sensationalist. The epicenter of the quake was not Mexico City, but ~150 miles south. So I don't think it was really much more than a tremor there.

    The CNN web site says people in Mexico City only tremors and are brushing it off. The Mexicans are sitting on strategic reserves of tequila and mezcal, so they might just be okay.

    A 5.6 hit the bay area a few years ago, but it wasn't a big deal.


    6.0 is only big in New York.

    Yeah, uh, go to Mexico city.


    A 6.0 probably knocked half of that place over. And hate to break it to you, but Mexico City is bigger than New York.
