The aftershocks of Taiwan earthquake occurred on the 20th (or 21th local time), ranging in 6.8 and 6.2 on Richter scale. I think you were misinformed that a new one occurred yesterday.

Also, the size of Taiwan is close to that of Delaware, rather than Minnesota. Please check your information before posting.
