As reported on Fox News... Earthquake in Mexico City... Skyscrapers reported to have swayed... Police sweeping streets for injuries...
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
...and the hits just keep on coming for Mexico.
Swaying not so bad... now tipping, there’s a problem. ;-)
Hope damage and injuries are non-existent or very low.
Shouldn’t they be more worried about injured people than injured streets?
Poor Mexico! I think they did make a lot of improvements in their building codes (and, hopefully, the buildings themselves!) after that terrible earthquake some years ago. Mexico City is built on highly unstable soil.
Stupid geologic question: Is the Mexico City fault line in any way connected to the California fault line that has had two small earthquakes in the past week?
Probably not, but it makes one wonder...
1. swine flu
2. narco kingpins
3. endemic corruption
4. earthquakes
WHAT next...? Make suggestions!
And also for bribes.
Police sweeping streets:::
There is a graphic pic
Venezuelan/Cuban invasion of Mexico, perhaps....

I think it is, but get up on Cal Tech-Pasadena and find Lucy Jones comments.
She is one smart lady and I do believe that the is a connection of the fault lines.

Reports 'no damage' in either Mexico City, or Puebla.
