This is an update to a previous notification for this event
The M+G+R
Foundation Comments: As
it can be seen above, an event which was already confirmed - attested
by the initial qualifier "This event
supersedes event AT00683827" - is now deleted. How can an
earthquake of 6.0 in the Richter scale can be confused with anything
else?
This is just one example. There are many similar cancellations,
including one which
was reported by the regular media (accompanied with footage of the
damages caused) only to be "deleted" by the authorities. Something is
really amiss and we do not think is the detecting instrumentation.
