I don't buy the 188 day thing, but, in case no-one has mentioned it (there seems to be a lot of arguing over the date), this quake has struck on the 188th day.
Well, it has actually struck 376 days after the Japanese one, 376 / 2 = 188.
The Japanese one struck March 11th 2011, 2:46pm local time (GMT +9)
This one struck roughly 9:00pm GMT on the 20th March, that would put Japan 6am 21st March, and it is a leap year, so that gives 376 days since the Japanese quake. (minus 8 or so hours)
People shouldn't be working off their own time zones, lol.
Just saying :-p
EDIT: So what big quake happened 188 days ago?edit on 20/3/12 by woogleuk

I am in Mexico also.What is annoying to me is that many people on here are talking like this was no big deal.Like it didn´t excite and stimulate their doomsday obsession.Tell that to all of the people who were injured or who are now without homes.For me this was one of the scariest experiences in my life.

I'm on your side here pal, I'm just doing the maths, this is a new one to me, and.....
Basing it off the Japanese quake, local time:
There was 189 days between the Japanese quake and the Fiji one (March 21st 2011 2:45pm - September 16th 2011 2:30am(?))
There was 187 days between Fiji and this one in Mexico (Sep 16th 2011 2:30am(?) - March 21st 2012 6am)
Obviously the 188 day theory is flawed by +/- 1 day, and given the amount of earthquakes worldwide, it is most likely just a rather large co-incidence.
It's kind of disturbing that so many people get off on the notion of bad crap happening.

But it happened on September 16th, which is 189 days, you can't use the Japanese timezone and your own timezone to make you right, you can only use one timezone for an accurate measurement.

Ugh, none of it matters anyway because "this one isn't the one we're waiting on".
Good grief, it's like arguing over the second coming.

You really are bringing nothing to the table of any value as far as getting down to brass tax of what may be an actual cause that we're looking at here. No one needs your negative bull. Try to come up something that will determine cause like the rest of us. Don't be so pathetic.

Oh my Ga are you really going to... Because an identifiable cycle might actually point to a cause. 123 abc breath in breath out. WTF?
