7.5 Quake just hit off of Japan-- near Fukushima (Nuke plant that melted down).. and before the mag 9 in 2011, a 7.2 quake was a foreshock.. hope this isn't another foreshock.. if Japan has another 9+ quake, all 4 of those nuke plants will fail, and push all the radioactive water into the Pacific ocean
Along with all those 100's of huge tanks full of toxic radioactive water....
oh geez.. I sure hope its not another foreshock.
