I don't know about that story (haven't looked at it yet), but I CAN tell you where the next HUGE earthquake will take place. Right off the coast up here (about 60 miles off). Should be in the neighborhood of a 9.2 as well. Why do I say this? Because it has exactly the same look, size, location and type (i.e., subduction) as the one that produced a 9.1 the day after Christmas in 2004 off the west coast of northern Sumatra. Also, there have been a lot of significant quakes all around the so-called "Ring of Fire"
except off the coast of Oregon. Historically, it's way past due as well. There are few places in the world capable of a 9+ quake and we've already had two of them (the afore mentioned 9.1 and the 9.0 one that hit Japan in 2011).
