“So, Earthquakes are caused by Tectonic Plates Falling Off of the Continental Shelf?”

Its been known to happen in a few fevered imaginations.

[MIA_eccl1212]

I think:
I felt the earth move under my feet...

[Mad Dawgg]

"I felt the earth move under my feet..."

interesting...

me however: "I felt the sky tumbling down, a'tumbling down"

[5th MEB]

I’ve had plates fall off the shelf during earthquakes.

[gdzla]

Probably trying to come up with a movie to show that earthquakes are a result of human activity.
You know, fracking is bad. Mining is bad, sucking oil and gas out of the ground is bad. Drilling wells for water is bad. Because it creates voids underground and destabilizes the earth.

“What’s the mechanism?”

Tectonic Setting of the August 2011 Virginia Earthquake
http://www.earth.northwestern.edu/people/seth/research/VA2011/

Eventually, rifting starts within a continent, and the cycle starts again. Often the new rifting starts near the site of the earlier rifting, because continents don’t heal well. The eastern U.S. is a nice example. The Appalachian Mountains formed in a continental collision that closed an earlier Atlantic Ocean about 300 million years ago. Since then, the present Atlantic Ocean opened during the past 200 million years. This process left lots of fossil faults, old weak zones where earthquakes can - and do - happen. The Virginia earthquake probably happened on one of these.

Thanks Fractal Trader. Must be all that fracking there. /s

Florida’s base is water carved lime stone. As it has become overpopulated, the underground drinking water within the lime stone is being drawn too massively, causing the the limestone to collapse. This creates sink holes.

Open borders has been great for Florida. /s/

Dear ExGeeEye,

Thank You! I just knew I was not as paranoid as my psychiatrist keeps trying to tell me I am.

You've convinced me life isn't safe to keep living, so I went to get my gun to shoot my self. But, following government guidelines, I keep it dismantled and the parts and ammunition in separate locations, and I can't find all the pieces to reassemble it. Have you ever tried to put a bullet back together again, after taking it apart?

Then I thought about poison, but being prudent type of person, I don't keep any around the house!

We only have showers in my house, so drowning myself in the bathtub is out. . . and I tried holding my head underwater in the sink. Did you know you can't do that?

Jumping off the roof? Well, the rose bushes around my house have thorns and they're painful to land in. Besides, I've run out of band-aids.

So I went side to hang myself.

First the limb of the tree broke because the gardener had sawed only half-way through it before quitting for the day. Then the beam on my patio cover broke through due to termites. . . so I tossed the rope over a limb I had tested first and the shoddy Chinese made rope broke!

When I was examining the broken rope I noticed the labelling on the rope from the Consumer Product Safety Commission which warned me that "misuse of this product could cause strangulation, brain damage, disfigurement, and/or death." I realized I was using the wrong products. So I went back inside, thankful that our government was protecting me. . .

I am now researching building my own flying saucer so that I can abandon this planet until such time as it is safe to live here.

Chicken Little

PS: Have you looked at the sky for any cracks lately?

[Swordmaker]

“What’s the mechanism?”

No, no, no, and no! It is all the Chinese suddenly deciding to walk in the same direction all at the same time. . . in lock-step.

Or it's Aliens.

#45 it was those drill bits that splintered the mantle which led to the mantle pieces breaking off.

[BatGuano]

So. perhaps I should be worried about Florida collapsing rather than breaking off? Great...

[gleeaikin]

In addition to millions of dollars damage to the WM and the National Cathedral, one friend in DC paid $200 to repair cracks in the chimney, and a neighbor had a chimney collapse.

If you live in Maryland, DC, Delaware, New Jersey or anywhere else that nuclear energy giant Exelon is trying to take over, this article makes good ammunition. Maryland has already been notified they will get a 10% rate hike soon. Heaven help them if there is a bad earthquake or nuclear accident they have to pay for.

Everyone should take a course in Geology.

[miserare]

Hah! Tell that to all my great-grandsons down south.

I do believe they are the cause of this calamity!
