Caribbean could face more deadly earthquakes: "The powerful earthquake that rocked Haiti may not be the last to devastate the region, earthquake experts said recently. 'Much larger quakes, of magnitude 8 or more, have occurred in this region and will do so again,' said one researcher.
If you thought the earthquake devastating Haiti was a rare occurence, think again. Earthquake specialists are now saying the Caribbean region could suffer from similar or stronger earthquakes in the near future.
As the New Scientist reports, 'not all the energy that has built up in the faults running through the Caribbean region was released in this week's tragedy.'"
