| 1195009 | 2011-05-10 08:22:00 | I agree that we don't need the whole world to know everytime we get a shake. We've had millions (i don't know actual figure) and they are pretty much part of life now. But goodiesguy seems to strike a nerve with me with every post |

| 1195010 | 2011-05-10 10:58:00 | What i meant in the earlier post is that every single aftershock does not need to be "Big News" with the news all over it. I feel bad for the people in christchurch but we don't constantly need after shock news shoved down our throats. And i dont think victims would like this constant publicity either. I would expect it to be big news if another building collapsed and injured or killed people, but there has been nothing to that extent really for a few months. I really need to be more Descriptive in my posts so they dont get taken the wrong way. |

| 1195011 | 2011-05-10 11:16:00 | Fair enough I guess, I don't want every aftershock on the news either. Just the way you said it..... Might want to give some thought to tact next time. |

| 1195012 | 2011-05-10 11:19:00 | I'm sorry that you were offended. I never meant to offend anyone. I am just a straight, upfront and simple kinda person. And i really need to remember to put more detail into what i say on this forum so people dont get offended. |

| 1195013 | 2011-05-10 11:20:00 | Fair enough I guess, I don't want every aftershock on the news either. But there have been thousands of aftershocks, ~6k I believe. That's not every aftershock on TV... |

| 1195016 | 2011-05-11 22:41:00 | The epicentre is the spot on the earth's surface above the quake's centre. That's definitely less than a kilometre deep! (I'm being pedantic - there's a few of us on this site!) |
