Beats having the fault cut loose all at once. They should be thankful.

Wonder if it's part of the big New Madrid fault . . . the last time that one went the Mississippi ran backwards for 2 days.

Global Warming. We better send money to the UN fast or Arkansas may no longer exist in err.... 9, yes 9 years.

I've been reading that in some cases the smaller quakes do not necessarily preclude larger quakes but may concentrate stress in a fault which is connected but not moving.

“Wonder if it’s part of the big New Madrid fault...”

I was wondering if the fault wasn’t connected to Arkansas as well.

I lived within 100 miles of the New Madrid fault as a kid...had tremors all the time. Even one quake around ‘68 that brought down half of the court house.
