i would just think that would be hard considering they are on an island

That's just my guess, I'm no expert in these matters.

The water is going in and out right now. Great view of a small little island that keeps going from exposed to submerged a bit

FoxNews just reported a few minutes ago that another earthquake (6.0) was reported in Argentina.
