The Earthquake Connection
A hundred million years ago the land mass around what was to become the British Isles was stretched and racked by massive earthquakes. Scientists believe they can trace the same process going on right now in the Aegean. Linking the two, they've found an intriguing connection between the creation of Greek islands, why the church where St Paul preached 2,000 years ago is now six feet under water - and the real size of Britain's oil reserves.
Predicting earthquakes is still a difficult task-but the study of them has led to an intriguing connection between Greek islands, sunken cities - and North Sea oil.
