7.1 Earthquake in Chile
#3
Figures, the one that generated a wave was an 8.8 I think, which was almost 100 times stronger.

They revised the scale in recent years, so that as far as I can tell, what is now a 7 would have been more like a 6 before. A 7.1 ain't what it used to be. Now an 8 is the bad boy, and a 9 is the planet-shaker.
