"The massive 8.8 earthquake that struck Chile may have changed the entire Earth's rotation and shortened the length of days on our planet, a NASA scientist said Monday."
Wow! I'm not sure whether to be concerned or not about a shorter day by 1.26 milliseconds (though really, I need longer days for a bit more sleep, not shorter ones). But the idea of a massive earthquake shifting the earth's axis and rotation totally rocks my world.
