| Naypyidaw (3rd largest city) has almost 1 million people now.
|
| Furthermore, the epicenter was right outside Mandalay (2nd
| largest city), which has a population of almost 2 million.
|
| In addition, the epicenter is also smack dab in the Central
| Lowlands, where much of Myanmar's population lives. Around
| 7-10 million people must live within 200 miles of the

|
| Wonder whether that's just automated simulation output,

| 4:
|
| 3 - Felt noticeably indoors, especially in tops of buildings,
| _yet many do not even notice_ there 's an earthquake.
|
| 4 - Felt indoors by many, felt outside by few. Sensation like
| heavy truck striking a building.
|
| Bangkok's reporting sensations, crowd behavior, and events
| more like a 6 to 7. Everybody runs, furniture moves, plaster
| falls, considerable damage to poorly built (partially
| finished) structures. A 3-4 is like, you barely notice, or
| think a really heavy vehicle just crashed or something. Not,
| everybody in town runs in panic, describes all the ceilings
| collapsing, cracks in walls afterward. [1][2][3][4]
|
| Expect there's probably going to be some re-evaluation of the

| actually reported by observers, cameras, and damage
| afterward. They're reporting slight damage and cracks even in
