Earthquakes

New magnitude-6.1 earthquake strikes Mexico - UPI.com
UPI reports: "Mexico was struck by a 6.1-magnitude earthquake on Saturday morning, believed to be an aftershock of another deadly earlier this month. The earthquake was centered near the town of Juchitan in Oaxaca, where director of Civil Protection Heliodoro Diaz reported there were no casualties from the third earthquake to strike the country in the month of September. He added that local residents were anxious after dealing with a number of tremors."

Comment: Praying for the people of Mexico that they will have some time to recover and rebuild. They really need to move their capital, Mexico City, but I doubt that is something they could realistically do. It's sad, because their vulnerability to quakes will never really go away.
