Japan's Quake -- Where Next?

With Japan in mind, I am puzzled by what I've heard seismologist say about the relationship between one earthquake and another. I have heard and read them to say that there is no relationship between an earthquake in one geographical area to another that occurs in a distant geographical area.

In my simple untrained mind I think that position is wrong. To say there is no relationship between these events goes too far. I think all physical phenomena is interrelated -- we just don't know what those relationships are.
