I think a lot of people don't reallize that a 4.4 is magnitudes stronger than a 1.8, not merly 2.2 clicks stronger.
And frankly, with 22,000* dead (and climbing) from a cyclone in Burma, it's kind of obscene for there to be Breaking News about a 1.8 earthquake in D.C.
* those are real zeros, not Moonliner zeros.
