Larger earthquakes - sign of the times? or something more?

Are larger earthquakes a sign of the times?

Excerpt:

Beginning in late 2004, a flurry of massive, tsunami-spawning earthquakes have rocked the world, first slamming Indonesia, then Chile and most recently Japan. Temblors that size are rare indeed: only 7 quakes as large or larger than 8.8 — the magnitude of last February's Chilean event — have occurred since 1900.

So what does it mean that three of those seven shocks have happened almost within the span of six years? While some scientists argue that these 'megaquakes' could be the vanguard of an extended outburst of strong seismic events, many others suggest that the apparent cluster of recent temblors is nothing more than a statistical fluke.

Comment: Maybe something more! See "earthquake" in NT. Consider "there was a great earthquake, such a mighty and great earthquake as had not occurred since men were on the earth" (Revelation 16:18)
