It occurred at the edge of a gap in large earthquake zones, so there is some thought that this might trigger an even larger quake. Or not.

As most people here would know, the Richter scale is logarithmic, not liner.

Biden voters think it's linear.

A similar magnitude quake occurred in this
same place a few months ago. Maybe it is telling us something bigger is on the way.

Was googling around for comparisons and found this. Nepal quake, magnitude 6.0, 2015. Building codes... They are a good thing.

The Richter scale goes into negative numbers? What is that like?
The ground is so still it is stiller than still?
