Heaviest quake feared after catastrophic Japan event
Reports note the quake as the most severe in Japan's history, five times stronger than 1923. Survivors flee to hills as aftershocks continue. Experts link the underwater epicenter to a Pacific fault, with 1923 and 1944 quakes on the same fault. Relief shipments begin, but lines are down and many communities remain isolated.
