An Earthquake in London, England, Craig you're having a laugh? How comes I missed it? Are you sure it wasn't just a heavy goods truck driving past your house while you were half asleep and you mistook it for an Earthquake?
Like Craig says I think Earthquakes can be more devestating, it's a frightening prospect alone not knowing when they are going to strike which gives you no time to prepare for them and they are impossible to defend against. With a Hurrican you go underground to escape it.
I hope Hurricane Ivan hasn't caused anyone on these posts any problems. The latest I've heard in England is that the Americans have 5,000 body bags ready.
