| Abstract | In July 1996, China marks the 20th anniversary of the Tangshan earthquake that killed more than 240,000 of the city's population of 600,000 and flattened all but a few structures. Nightmare memories of the July 28, 1976 disaster - among the world's worst - remain fresh, today weighing the more heavily psychologically because China is experiencing yet another peroid of intense seismic activity. |
