[Aztlan] Mesoamerican Tectonics

[Elaine Schele]

>From the NASA:

"A 7.3-magnitude earthquake struck just off the coast of Honduras at
3:24 a.m. local time (08:24 UTC) on May 28, 2009. According to a
Reuters report issued the same day, the offshore earthquake damaged
buildings across northern Honduras, crushing some residents as they
slept. The known death toll from the quake stood at five, and that
number was expected to rise as remote villages reported their
casualties."
