Just kidding. Unless you happen to be a global warmer, then you MUST
believe!!!

Look, lets be straight up, earthquakes are no joke, and yes global
warming did in all likelihood play a major role in the quake. How?,
simple, once massive glaciers melt, and their weight is no longer
restraining the Earths crust, the Earths ability to shift (quake) or
the amount of a shift, will be greater than with the restraining
weight of the glacier on the crust. Or are you supposed to keep
chicken pot pie crust on ice, before baking the pie? It's one of the
two. I know it..............I think

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Surely it *could* have contributed. The weight of the extra co2 must have
had *some* effect, either it caused the quake to happen earlier or later. I
would presume extra atmospheric weight would make it earlier. In this case
perhaps in the nano-second range!

Of course, the continual movement of continental plates cannot have anything
to do with it!!

No.... what it is is the increase of water pressure on the ocean
floors because of the sea level rise that Hairy Dope has been
chattering about. As the ocean is rising, there is increased pressure
of water on the ocean floor over fault zones, This squeezes more water
into the fault cracks which acts like a lubricant, making it easier
for the faults to give way and suddenly move, causing eathquakes.

So yes, man-made Global Warming is the cause.

( I made this up because I'm sure some AGW Alarmist will think of it
as well...... AGW causes everything bad in the world. ;) )

Catoni, please do not tell them that you made up the information. It's
a lot more fun to just let them provide their volumes of
scientifically peer reviewed info to disprove you. In fact, it's
hysterical..................

A few years back there was a Kook on this forum who claimed that GW's
cooling of the stratosphere would reduce the Earth's angular momentum,
changing the speed of the Earth's rotation, and, therefore, cause
earthquakes. He hasn't been around lately.

But "massive glaciers" have not melted recently. Some small glaciers
have receded. Your claim is without scientific basis.

Maybe the removal of oil and natural gas reserves off the coast of the
US has destabilized the crust around Christchurch and the rest of the
ring of fire.

Doesn't matter as long as any tiny effect can be attributed to co2 then that
is what we talk about right?

Did he say would or could? If he said would he's probably not a
warmer. If he said could, he is. It's a standard.
