“IMO, it’s a liquifaction ripe area.”

It’s more than just your opinion! One of the effects was that so much water was squeezed out of liquified ground that it considerably increased the flow of the Mississippi River for a while. The parts that weren’t running backwards, that is.

Well, its wednesday morning here in Asia. Things are not looking any better today. The Chinese aid groups are getting into most towns now. Some are still cut-off due to road collapses and mudslides. Some PLA troops have arrived via parachute drops. There have also been over flights dropping items to some towns.
Taiwan relief groups are literally staged at the airports ready to go. They are just awaiting an OK from PRC authorities. Not so much a political hold as a logistics one.
Prayers and hope continue.

The water table was tapped. Interesting.
