    Post Do your days feel less then 24 hours? They might just be.

    "The massive 8.8 earthquake that struck Chile may have changed the entire Earth's rotation and shortened the length of days on our planet, a NASA scientist said Monday."

    Read the article yesterday. Made me start thinking about a whole bunch of things. Will there be more weather changes, will the earth tilt more or change axis completely. Had to stop thinking so I wouldn't scare myself.

    I heard the same thing about the earthquake back in 2004 that was a 9 and triggered that devastating tsunami.

    So between that earthquake and this recent one, it appears the days are even shorter.

    Edited to add: I should have checked your link before posting. It mentioned this in it. Sorry.
