...fact it had too many targets and there were political splits on issues like opening up labor markets. But another issue was that E.U. leaders were simply unwilling to overhaul their economies - and there was no enforcement mechanism in place to put them into line. Ann Mettler, head of the Lisbon Council, a Brussels-based think tank, says European leaders have been too cautious about reform, backing off, for example, when it comes to tackling energy oligopolies and inefficient, formerly state-run telecom operators.

(Most accounts indicate they hit the shore less than 20 minutes after the first quake shock.) "It would have been virtually impossible to mobilize quickly enough to get out of harm's way," Lubchenco says - especially at 3:30 a.m., when the quake hit. "They didn't have the benefit of early warning in this case." (See the 10 deadliest earthquakes...
