It's been a busy year for strange natural events and disasters:

Large Earthquakes (over 6.0 on the Richter Scale) in: Haiti, Turkey, Mexico, Chile, China, Sumatra, Spain, Solomon Islands (more than once, a couple months apart), Japan, China/Russia/North Korea border, New Guinea, Offshore of Northern California, plus "minor" ones in non-earthquake prone places, including Illinois and Oklahoma (and it's only the 4th month of the year!): http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eqinthenews/2010/

Volcano erupting in Iceland that's been dormant for 200 years or so :http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/id/58333/title/Ash_from_Icelandic_eruption_may_just_be_the_start

Exciting times!
