2009 Honduras earthquake

I added a total of three sentences of new information. Three aftershocks followed the earthquake within magnitude 4 range. Added after the last sentence in the introduction paragraph. It was a result of left-lateral strike slip faulting. Added after the first sentence in the paragraph under "Earthquake". I also added a new reference for these two sentences. http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/view.php?id=38792 I edited the wording of the sentences under "Damage" and checked for grammatical errors. I added a third and final sentence to the article at the very end: The earthquake caused an estimated $37 million worth of damage, and electricity, Internet and telephone connections were cut throughout the majority of Honduras. I also included and added a new reference: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/05/28/71-earthquake-hits-hondur_n_208491.html I checked for plagiarism and reliable sources, which both were good, and I added an external link that includes a map showing the plate boundaries, magnitudes, depth, epicenter, and more of the 2009 earthquake. http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eqarchives/poster/2009/20090528.php
