I hear that San Francisco might get a big one in 1906. I hope it doesn’t happen.

[presently no screen name]

I heard yesterday Long Island, NY, had one. I believe it was a 3.9. Not normal for that area - but what’s normal any more.

We had to move the blog article you received in your e-mail from the News forum into our Bloggers forum.

We also added the bracketed comment to your title then we added "Blog" to the source and your statement that this was something you had received in your personal E-mail.

Any similar E-mails which you receive would be best verified before you rush off just to be the first person to post similar alarmist yet hoaxed stories.

This is the time of year when there are many hoaxes and scams delivered in E-mail so please do take some time before forwarding or repeating them here.

Please do not post blog articles in Free Republic's News forum.

Thank you.

It's not an earthquake...it's a missile!

Thanks for the ping. So much to catch up on! :)
I vaguely remember something about an Alaska quake, but not enough to even give you a good direction to look in... I’ll definitely post/ping you if I remember though!

Oh good grief.

I see the problem.

According to earthquake 3d in the last seven hours there have been three 6.1 to 6.8 quakes in the last 7 hrs, none in Alaska that high.

[Mmogamer]

I meant 7 days not hours, there’s been alot of minor quakes in
Alaska over the last week.

[The Comedian]

Is it me or did the TITLE change?

Nope, it ain't you, the title changed.

I blame the LHC.

Well, *obviously* the government is trying to cover this up.

Obviously.
