Quaking All Over
0In the past five weeks, two massive earthquakes have killed thousands in Turkey and Taiwan. What do you think about this sudden spate of pre-millennial natural disasters?
“Surely this is a sign from God. It's His way of telling us that plates far below the Earth's surface are shifting on top of molten magma.”
Diane Dahm –
Florist“I have no sympathy for these earthquake victims. If they didn't want to take the risk, they shouldn't have been living on the planet's surface.”
Larry Selsberg –
Systems Analyst“Of course all those cheap buildings fell down. Never trust anything made in Taiwan.”
Steve LaFleur –
Cable Installer“In 1992, I experienced a panquake while eating at IHOP. Try as you might, you just can't put a traumatic event like that out of your mind.”
Judith Ambrose –
Teacher“Sorry about that whole earth-moving thing. It's just that my girlfriend and I have such amazing sex.”
Wesley Vebber –
Bus Driver“I don't mean to sound insensitive, but I have to ask: Was there anyone on the scene with an IMAX camera?”
