Just a little Tremblor?

Kaitlin once wrote to us that there are two words in Spanish for earthquakes,  one for the smaller ones and one for the bigger ones.  The word for the smaller one is tremblor.  That's the kind of earthquake they had in Chile a couple of days ago.  I read about it on Google.  It was a 6.7 and Kaitlin lives at the epicenter!  It made me wonder just how big an earthquake has to be to be labeled with the other spanish word for big earthquakes?  6.7 would seem pretty big to me.....
It will be good to hear from her on Monday to see if she was scared.  Two people died during the earthquake from heart attacks.  Must be kind of scary!  Stay tuned....
