1. There's been a lot of shakin' away from the usual earthquake zones of late....
..... Maybe Mother Nature too has decided America is past saving. Time to wipe it out and start over.

3. I hope you're wrong
They're way too many decent Americans who will suffer for the Bushco assholes.

Tweety time. More on appeasers.

7. Some scientist thinks tectonic plates losing ice mass are shifting more.
Someone posted something about it on DU somewhere.

Not sure how valid the theory is, though.

I felt two of the three. The most recent aftershock was a pretty good jolt I thought.

17. Sorry. But 3.1 is hardly anything to fret about.
Please make sure you check the USGS current earthquakes http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Maps/region/N_America.php">link before freaking everyone out!

Something to note on the USGS site: the bigger the square in the picture, the bigger the earthquake.

42. When I lived in Virginia, we had an earthquake.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2003_Virginia_Earthquake

The 2003 Virginia earthquake was a magnitude 4.5 earthquake. It occurred on December 9, 2003 at 3:59 p.m. EST (20:59 UTC) in the foothills about 30 miles (48 kilometers) west of Richmond, Virginia.


I was over 150 miles away and felt this quake. It felt like a big 18 wheeler driving right by the house at speed. Earthquakes are common on the east coast, but few are big enough to be noticed by people without instruments.
