Man-made "quake" to hit Christchurch at 11:30am
When I read this I was quite amazed. They are planning a Mag 4.0 at QEII Stadium with the depth of 12km. The quake will be felt within a 10km radius and no damage is expected.

They are doing this to see if they can repair land that has been liquefaction.

Im also not sure if this has already happened with it being 3:07 PM NZT now.

Does that not prove they can set one off anytime anywhere they choose
“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” – Carl Sagan

This needs a pin as several threads about GPs preparing for a big quake in that area, this stinks!!!!!!

About 25 small underground explosives are to be placed up to 12 metres deep and set off to simulate an earthquake of about magnitude 4.

This doesn't seem like much to kick off a 4.

Yea nothing is showing a Mag 3.5 or even the 4.0 as predicted; maybe this is scheduled for tomorrow. Funny how the article itself was posted 11:26 AM Tuesday Apr 17, 2012 minutes before the so called quake was set to go off.

Yes, very strange not to announce it long before hand, so that the already rattled population of the city wouldn't be alarmed at the time.

It seems to have been a hasty decision, which they then cancelled.
