12. and they are claiming that dam wasn't damaged, longest dam in the world...
the Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze River, which reportedly already has cracks and major construction flaws...another disaster just waiting to happen!

Wonder who they chose to walk out on that thing for inspection, to declare it sound? They were immediately mentioning Three Gorges, right after the first earthquake happened, last night on the news.

They also said that there were two aftershocks within an hour of the first quake, both of them significantly huge tremors on the scale.
