Two Earthquakes in Madrid
 

"MADRID ? Two earthquakes struck southeast Spain in quick succession Wednesday, killing at least three people and causing major damage to buildings, an official said.

The epicenter of the quakes ? with magnitudes of 4.4 and 5.2 ? was close to the town of Lorca, and the second came about two hours after the first, an official with the Murcia regional government said on condition of anonymity in line with department policy."

The quakes were in Lorca about 475km south south east of madrid.

Scary so it is true that 12/12/12 is the end of the world?

Rome will be shaved off the face of the Earth tomorrow, as a devastating earthquake will reduce the Eternal City to a pile of rubble, according to widespread rumors on social networking sites which are causing a rising panic among residents.

Allegedly made by Raffaele Bendandi, a long-dead pseudoscientist who is said to have predicted several earthquakes, the forecast is causing a considerable panic in the capital, with many organizing open spaces gatherings on the capital’s outskirts.

it's actually not scary at all if you think about it... all this proves is that there is indeed over 1 000 000 earthquakes in a year EVERY year and probably has been for the last billion years or so...

Kind of spooky. Spain isn't far from where he predicted.
