U.S. earthquake web page blocked?

According to the U.S. Geological Survey's earthquake website, there was a 4.6 magnitude earthquake in Sichuan yesterday at 5:26 pm.

The epicenter was near Mianyang.

You can visit the web page linked above, but for some reason, not the detailed map of the earthquake area: China's Net Nanny seems to be blocking that page.

In other earthquake news, The China Daily reports that the May 12 quake has "left 1.4 million farmers in about 4,000 remote villages in absolute poverty".

Thanks to William in Chengdu for the tip.
