Of design he created thus; his own waste providing his own food, and all that he did or suffered taking place in and by himself. For the Creator conceived that a being which was self-sufficient would be far more excellent than one which lacked anything; and, as he had no need to take anything or defend himself against any one, the Creator did not think it necessary to bestow upon him hands: nor had he any need of feet, nor of the whole apparatus of walking; but the movement suited to his spherical form which was designed by him, being of all the seven that which is most appropriate to mind and intelligence; and he was made to move in the same manner and on the same spot, within his own limits revolving in a circle. All the other six motions were taken away from him, and he was made not to partake of their deviations. And as this circular movement required no feet, the universe was created without legs and without feet.” -Plato |

But Japanese researchers have found that the fault is no more than 16 miles (26 kilometers) from the surface, and in some places it's only 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) beneath the city. This closer proximity means that Tokyo could be more susceptible to the effects of earthquakes than previously thought. Stronger ground motion is more likely when a quake occurs closer to the surface." [link to news.nationalgeographic.com] "A fragment of the Pacific tectonic plate beneath Tokyo may be the source of recurring large earthquakes in this region, according to research published online this week in Nature Geoscience. The fragment is jammed between the various tectonic plates that interact there, increasing friction between the plates and setting the stage for earthquakes. Shinji Toda and colleagues found the discrete fragment by analysing the location and distribution of hundreds of thousands of past earthquakes that have occurred beneath central Japan. They suggest that the fragment broke off the Pacific plate as a result of the resistance of large submarine volcanoes that were present on the plate as it subducted. The identification of this fragment further complicates the tectonic picture of central Japan, which sits at the boundary of several tectonic plates.

Researchers at the University of Tokyo’s earthquake research institute based the figure on data from the growing number of tremors in the capital since last year’s March 11 earthquake off northeast Japan, the Yomiuri Shimbun reported. According to the meteorological agency, an average of 1.48 earthquakes with magnitudes ranging from three to six have occurred per day in and near Tokyo since March. That is around five times as many as before the disaster, the researchers said, according to the Yomiuri. The Japanese government has forecast that the chance of a major quake of magnitude seven or more in the Tokyo region is 70% over the next 30 years. Naoshi Hirata, one of the University of Tokyo researchers, said the results showed that seismic activity had increased in the area around the capital, which was expected to lead to a higher probability of a major quake.
