But for reasons [laughter] unknown, they didn’t include the fracture zone in their survey.

Well, if that’s the case, meaning the fracture zone could move and trigger an earthquake.

    The part about the Greenland ice sheets intrigued me, stated that they have never observed this before.
    Is this true? , to the educated fission causes heat through friction yes no, massive release of fissionable material equals heat and no turning the heat off. Yes no maybe., looney

    I found this very hard to watch due to "enhancements" of otherwise 'straight' film. Laughing while trying to talk about impossibly dreadful crisis is an interesting and fairly common behavior. (But I didn't think the guy laughed as much as the headline suggested.)

    Info on problems with fault lines was welcome. I've not made a point to think how wide-spread it may be – and didn't realize fault line "geography" could change (but suppose it must with each quake!).

      As you confirm! The laughter doesn't mean the person laughing is unaware – they may be painfully aware. I've seen this kind of laughter "catch on" – so that others join in. None can explain beyond talking about the total absurdity, impossibility, insanity of the situation. I think it's among coping, even healing, spontaneous responses!
