Concepcion moved 10 feet



Got this from CNN today:
The magnitude-8.8 earthquake that rocked the west coast of Chile last month was violent enough to move the city of Concepcion at least 10 feet to the west and the capital, Santiago, about 11 inches to the west-southwest...


I well believe this after seeing the damage in the area.  Above is a photo I took today of a railroad track we crossed on the way to deliver food to a church in Hualqui.
