| Every earthquake tips the Earth's axis to some degree. More powerful ones tip it more, but even the effects of this one were completely insignificant. It's not a sign of the apocalypse. |

| The amount of earthquakes necessary to create a total pole shift as described by Nostradamus would destroy the planet. Earthquakes aren't going to cause a rapid pole-shift. |

 | The day shorter by a microsecond doesn't scare me. The axis shift by 3 inches is actually kind of threatening... that kind of thing can butterfly over time. It's just a ripple in the theoretical pond now, but it could be a wave in a couple of years. |

| I never believed what CNN said,they are pros at BSing and giving out dumb informations to sound better than other channels. If it was true,i don't think it would be "fatal" in anyway. |

| my teacher told me that if the earth went off it's axis, the world would end or something. i didn't really understand it at the time, but if this continues, won't we collide with another planet or teh sun? |

| Something like that is very minuscule in the grand scheme of things. On a side note, any quote attributed to Nostradamus and his supposed fortune telling is BS.
