Feel sorry for all those working the boxing day sales right? Seeing Riccarton mall is now evac'd obviously lowering sales in an already hurt economy.

And all insurance places are generally shut, well brokers are anyway.

Why do they keep calling them aftershocks? When do they become an earthquake in their own right?

+1 ???

They are aftershocks as they are a continuation of the initial earthquake i.e. along the same fault. As the weeks have gone by, the end of the fault has stretched both directions (towards and away from town, plus I think there was 3 intersecting faults as part of the main quake which made it a bit messy) and the aftershocks are the stress releasing at the tip of the faultlines. So as the stress builds up to the point where it lets go at one point, it then shifts the stress along the fault to another point, which then builds up and releases.

There has been one earthquake centered in Lyttleton (which also had its own aftershocks) that was separate from the main earthquake. All the other shocks are just the end of the first event. Also all the aftershocks combined have still only added up to a small percentage of the energy released by the main quake.

+1 to the above, Haiti is still getting aftershocks over 5 on the richter scale, so you can keep getting them up to a year down the track....And even longer as we are still in the infancy of studying earthquakes, this one alone has caused a huge amount of interest as it wasn't one earthquake but a series that was triggered by the first which caused a cascade effect in seconds.

A good job to have at the moment is to be a glasser.

I drove past the old Munmissple Electricity Dept building ( Now Bob Browns Hi Fi ) today.

Alot of the windows were blown out. The whole street was covered in broken glass.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
