Escalating Earthquake Sequence Hualien (General)
5.8 last night and a 4.8 this morning plus a stack of others - this is like one long five-day earthquake
I suspect there's at least one more big one left in this sequence for Hualien
Then, according to previous history, the whole show could move south to Taidong
Amazing bravery shown by the rescuers to be getting people out of buildings while major quakes still happening with alarming regularity
Massive goof by CWB who called the peak of the sequence with the 5.8M (US 6.1) quake three nights ago and told everyone to relax and that the main danger had passed - given the unprecedented level of activity it was a mind-bogglingly stupid call
