I’ve fixed it, but not as per her (his?) suggestion, which linked to a krill oil website (which does have a list of earthquakes…).

It didn’t make the news except as a lowly ticker item. On the USGS page where you can enter some information if you felt an earthquake it wasn’t listed either – apparently not strong enough. I don’t mind.

Toilets are not the only concern when the overdue earthquake hits Tokyo. If it hits in the night, it won’t be too bad, but in the day there will be thousands (millions?) in the city that live one or two hours’ train commute away. The mental picture I get is that of “the rout of civilisation, (…) the massacre of mankind.”

My “other sources” are falling down on the job: even now, a Google News search for “earthquake japan” finds nothing more worrisome than this concern over toilets.
