    :?: The forces of nature reacts based on the activities and behavior of humankind! The more we deconsecrate the world by our evil lifestyles of murder,drugs,abomination,corruption,bad governance; it’s more reason the forces of nature have for reacting!!! From what i’ve seen,the tremors are getting closer to land,seems like Dominica is up for a rude awakening by a great shake!!!

    Dominica is facing destruction and threats of destruction by both nature and man. Scarit the prime mistake is already causing so much havoc and damage,the forces of nature is probably angry and will pay the island some visits!!!

      I think the forces of nature is angry with every human being, some more so than others. If one examines his/her conscience, therein lie the answer and reason.
