I blame the Communists

MANIFESTO

Apparently, myriad theories regarding China's horrendous earthquake are being spun on that country's blogs, and many are as wacky as what one might expect on a somewhat ungoverned medium. From toads to butterflies to a vast pre-Olympic conspiracy, a number of reasons for the seismic event are being broached.

I suppose it's no worse than ascribing such an event to a trident-bearing earth shaker, although one might think (and hope) the species has learned a few things in the last 3000 years.
