Exactly, so why do you think you know this isn't going to be a Richter
15 event. The information talks about "mountain building", which means
entire mountain-ranges get thrust up out of nowhere, complete plates
slamming under and over each other. You did notice that earthquakes are
measured in acceleration of the ground. There is also rock getting
thrust in the air, and then falls back. What acceleration do you
think any equipment would register there, for those locations. Should
be pretty awesome right? In keeping with tradition, earthquakes are
graded in their most severe locales, so we can only assume they did
the exact same thing.

She in fact says this is a scam to make people scared of aliens.

Oh my god, we *DO* have a long way to go, don't we. SIGH SIGH SIGH.

What do you think people in Russia think of communism? they think
it's a great ideal, kapitalism, that is evil (it's pretty much the
same story as for kapitalism under the population i think). When
they are as deluded as yourself (which some are!) they would think
this movie is about kapitalims, and they wouldn't be wrong either:
you would be both wrong, and right, because it is about both. But to
whom am i talking here.

Why are you so stupid that you still think there is a difference
between communism and kapitalism.
They are both slogans, little one.
Communism: "let's make this world better for all of us, and work
together!" 
Kapitalism: "let every man fight for himself, and god for all!"

What is the end result of both?

Do you really think that is the issue here ??
