This article from the NY times is about the Chilean earthquake that occured last February. It has been discovered that the area where the earthquake erupted was different than expected, which leaves a chance for there to be another less-severe earthquake in the near future. Knowledge of where and why earthquakes occur is capable of saving the lives and property of many.
