Great Earthquakes of the past 6 Years

Great graphic and post from "The Big Picture" blog. Of note is the following quote:

“What is clear is that for the 6.2 years since 2004, there have been more great earthquakes around the world than in any 6.2-year period throughout the 110-year history of seismic recordings.”
