Two USGS PhD's seem to disagree with you. Remember, movement is relative -
relative to what?

I heard that the island of Sumatra has moved 35 meter.

Is or was there any anomalies in GPS positioning on the "Australian
Plate"?
Is it regulated by the satellites ?
As far as I can guess, a datum change would be necessary ?

Does anybody know any reliable sources for answers to these questions ?


A report on the news tonight said that some Islands close to the
epicentre
had moved 120 metres.

Do you have any idea of how ridiculous that sounds.??
