Largest recorded earthquake?

Earthquakes happen all the time, but most are too small for anyone to get excited about. Since all geologists who record earthquakes operate mostly independently of those in another part of the world, there's no way at this time to tell which earthquake was technically last recorded.The last major earthquake, however, was recorded October 12, 2008 at 20:55:42 UTC (Roughly equivalent to GMT). It was at latitude 20.060°S and longitude 64.940°W, which is in Chuquisaca, Bolivia. The quake originated 356.3 km (221.4 miles) below the surface of the Earth. No fatalities resulted from the 6.2 magnitude quake.The list of major earthquakes on Wikipedia is regularly updated if you want to keep track: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_earthquakes
