Felt the earthquake back in the 80’s...was working on the 3 floor of the hospital and the steel table bolted to the floor for the nurses station moved, but those up on the 6 floor, ICU, RCU telemetry and the step down unit left it quite strong...the higher up you go in a building the more you feel the shaking. I slept thought this latest one didn’t feel anything...
I’ll match my sciencematicians semilogistics with them anytime.
So you presume oil lubricates the earth? Therefore, you presume the earth relieves itself of stress buildup from tectonic action. Well, most of the crust is solid rock. The oil is locked up and not lubricating anything. When the stress finally increase to the point that the rock cant resist them, the rock mass slips along or under faults. Oil has nothing to do with this. Earthquakes happen. Politics happens. They are unrelated.
Now, maybe you are pointing at an answer. How close was this earthquake to the $billion oil spill in a tributary of the Kalamazoo River? They have finally gathered up most of this spill on the surface, but how much could have gone deep and lubricated an earthquake fault line? Incidentally, this $billion disaster that started in 2010 was caused by a 6 foot diameter Enbridge owned Canadian tar sands oil pipeline which leaked for 24 hours before discovery. From pictures I’ve seen it looks like there was a seam rupture at least 10 feet long. Actually, this link shows the rupture in the first line of photos:
None. Keep bringing it up though, I need a laugh once in a while.
Right in between two wells, not a good pic to help fracking cause.
Only if you can’t read.
