Uh oh.
Japan has gone quiet.

Quoting: -Noahsdad- Who knows what USGS is doing to fudge the numbers/locations in order not to incite a panic. They have been caught in lies before. Pretty interesting the fact that we have had almost a very VERY similar pattern of quakes pre-7.3 foreshock that happened in Japan and they're happening now.
Please note, in the hours leading up to the big Japan quake, we had:
