The Globe and Mail: Tremors may mean 'Big One' on its way

The Globe and Mail: Tremors may mean 'Big One' on its way: "By MARK HUME

Vancouver — A silent tectonic event, so powerful it has shifted southern Vancouver Island out to sea, but so subtle nobody has felt a thing, is slowly unfolding on the West Coast.

Scientists who are tracking the event with sensitive seismographs and earth orbiting satellites warn it could be a trigger for a massive earthquake -- some time, maybe soon.

But they are quick to add that the imperceptible tremors emanating from deep beneath the surface are sending signals scientists are not yet able to comprehend fully and 'the Big One' might yet be 200 years off.

What they do know is that the earth is moving this week on the West Coast as two massive tectonic plates slip past each other."

Get Firefox!

Why Use Firefox?

"Beware of spyware. If you can, use the Firefox browser." - USA Today "Better than Internet Explorer by leaps and bounds." - FORBES
  • Popup Blocking
  • Stop annoying popup ads in their tracks with Firefox's built in popup blocker.
  • Tabbed Browsing
  • View more than one web page in a single window with this time saving feature. Open links in the background so that they're ready for viewing when you're ready to read them. Find out more...
  • Privacy and Security
  • Built with your security in mind, Firefox keeps your computer safe from malicious spyware by not loading harmful ActiveX controls. A comprehensive set of privacy tools keep your online activity your business.
  • Smarter Search
  • Google Search is built right into the toolbar, and there is a plethora of other search tools including Smart Keywords (type "dict " in the Location bar), and the new Find bar (which finds text as you type without covering up anything).
  • Live Bookmarks
  • RSS integration lets you read the latest news headlines and read updates to your favorite sites that are syndicated. Find out more...
  • Hassle-Free Downloading
  • Files you download are automatically saved to your Desktop so they're easy to find. Fewer prompts mean files download quicker.
  • Fits Like a Glove
  • Simple and intuitive, yet fully featured, Firefox has all the functions you're used to - Bookmarks, History, Full Screen, Text Zooming to make pages with small text easier to read, etc.
  • S, M, L or XL—It's Your Choice
  • Firefox is the most customizable browser on the planet. Customize your toolbars to add additional buttons, install new Extensions that add new features, add new Themes to browse with style, and use the adaptive search system to allow you to search an infinite number of engines. Firefox is as big or small as you want.
  • Setup's a Snap
  • At only 4.7MB (Windows), Firefox takes just a few minutes to download over a slow connection and seconds over a fast connection. The installer gets you set up quickly, and the new Easy Transition system imports all of your settings - Favorites, passwords and other data from Internet Explorer and other browsers - so you can start surfing right away.
  • A Developer's Best Friend
  • Firefox comes with a standard set of developer tools including a powerful JavaScript and CSS error/warning console, and an optional Document Inspector that gives detailed insight about your pages.
  • Read Mail—Not Spam
  • Thunderbird is the perfect complement to Firefox.
