Magnificent Satellite Image of Haiti's Fault

This is the fault that caused the Hatian earthquake. This Landsat Geocover image shows the city of Port-au-Prince (purple) and a segment of the Enriquillo-Plantain Garden Fault trending E-W just south of the city.

Thanks for edumacation Teresa. Wow that sucker really sticks out. I have to go listen to Jimmy Buffet now. Hey, did I ever tell you I saw him at Ceasars Tahoe in the 80's. I must have forgotten ... I won't let that happen again.

Yeah, it does look like it sticks out quite a bit. Enjoy listening to Buffett. I love his music! That's cool that you were able to see him at Caesers Tahoe. Have a wonderfully relaxing weekend!:)
