For even the most educated professionals, seismology is a tough field. If they can't predict with any certainty, why you, looking at the USGS grid, who the same professionals look at, can't tell?
Now you are looking at little squares, they know what is an earthquake and what is an aftershock, do you?
And the earth has this bad habit of running on its own timeline. That we are just a blip of. The island of Japan may be gearing up for another big one....10,000 years down the road. Which is still the blink of an eye in the Earth's timeline. By then, they will be prepared, if we are not living on another planet.

Imagine them evacuating the entire city of Tokyo (costing billiona) all because of this thread.

Personally I would have evacuated Tokyo after the nuclear meltdowns. Just too close for comfort. I can predict with near certainty an aftershock in the 8.0 range in the coming months based solely on the fact of the 9.1 earthquake.
Please share with us your detailed evacuation plan... that would be MOST helpful... thanks
