Hello All,

I just saw on the news that the recent quake in Japan shifted the earth's axis 
by 4 inches and that the main island of Japan moved nearly 8 feet.

Could someone on the list put this into perspective? As an example, I would 
imagine that the legal descriptions for property lines based on precise 
lat/long coordinates now need to be revised - here in SW Ohio the plats in the 
county offices are all described this way.

I hope any list members, friends or family in Japan are ok but I would like to 
hear some further insight into this incredible event - now that we have such 
precision devices (GPS) it seems like the ongoing shifting of the land under 
the coordinate grid would need to be addressed, right?
