If the earth slows down or speeds up, our clocks might be wrong. To synchronize

What will happen this time?

Excerpt of news story:

Enzo Boschi, the head of Italy's National Geophysics Institute, likened the
quake's power to detonating a million atomic bombs the size of those dropped on
Japan during World War II, and said the shaking was so powerful it even
disturbed the Earth's rotation.

``All the planet is vibrating'' from the quake, he told Italian state radio.
Other scientists said it was early too say whether the rotation was affected by
the quake.


The entire planet vibrated from the Alaska quake in 1964, too, but it
didn't affect the earth's general rotation.

Speaking of Alaska, Steve Quale on Coast to Coast AM
(Art Bell's former radio carnival kook sideshow) and Pravda
have both said that the HAARP *caused* the Sumatra Earthquake
of 2005 and it's all some big conspiracy.

How so predictable eh.......?

IT'S GETTIN AWFUL CROWDED UP THERE ON THE
GRASSY KNOLL! (ro'ing-tflmao at these radio kooks on C to C AM !)

Most probably true. Conservation of rotational energy and momentum (a
couple of those basic laws of physics, don'tcha know) makes the
rotational speed stay pretty much the same before and after a quake,
even when Earth rings like a bell.

I would love to find out if anyone noted any disruptions in the
geomagnetic field or ionosphere (via shortwave anomalies or any other
method) just prior to the quake. This theory has been floating about
for awhile now, and it would be great to know. Coming close on the
heels of the *pretty big* south ocean quake near New Zealand, there
could have been two disruptions in short order.
