2008 Sichuan Earthquake Likely Man-Made

Speculation on this area apparently isn't new http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/china/4434400... [2009]. Very interesting I haven't heard of that before, it's possible, it seems http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservoir-induced_seismicity#Re...

Man-made? More like man-triggered:

"The Zipingpu reservoir’s apparent triggering of the Wenchuan earthquake is an unprecedented case of reservoir-induced seismicity that presents huge challenges for scientific theory."

There is way too little potential energy in that reservoir to cause an earthquake on that scale.

> The Chinese earthquake that killed 80,000 people in May of 2008 most likely was not an act of God, a study released today has found.

I can understand that for some strange reason is the phrase "act of God" in the USA law system (it is, right?). But why is it in a scientific paper?

Weird. I felt the quake in Beijing while we were interviewing someone. Crazy to think that it could be manmade and still felt that far.

please believe this absurdity if you are a moron.
