Ping!......................
I was noticing that.
“Scientists tell us that it is just a matter of time before cataclysmic earthquakes erupt along the New Madrid fault zone once again, and when that time arrives the death and destruction that we will witness will be off the charts.”
I can’t disagree. The area affected by the New Madrid quake(s) has become more settled and developed since then.
It would be epically bad.
Yosemite is going to blow!
What I am concerned about, however, is eventually the New Madrid fault will erupt, and when it does untold devastation will occur. David Wilkerson predicted it, and though his dating was way off, I'm still convinced it will occur. It's not a matter of "if," but "when."
My word of advice for everyone, is not to let this become another kind of "Y2K" event. All panic, no disaster.
I have been saying for weeks now that one should expect some activity from the New Madrid within several weeks of the eclipse.
If one does some tracking of eclipses worldwide, there is a fair amount of anecdotal evidence to support the theory of a post-eclipse earthquake.
In fact, there was a bit of a small shake this past weekend in Ohio already. Steele, Missouri had a shake this morning at about 7:24am. Missouri has been having a cluster of them over the last 7 days. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?extent=33.19273,-97.27295&extent=39.27479,-83.39722&range=week&magnitude=all&list=false&settings=true
This particular eclipse is going to have a good magnetic pull over the entire fault-line, so things could get interesting.
Y2K all over again. I worry more about having an idiot at EVERY control stick that matters in the FedGov.
I found this video very interesting.
It’s 35 mins long but not a lot of nonsense in it. There is a very un usual set of events that are going to happen on or just around the eclipse.
There’s a transcript at the link for anyone who doesn’t want to watch the video.

Of all things the comet should be named. The Devil Comet......
There’s also an alignment of 5 of the planets at this time, too.
“the Great American Eclipse of 2024 will complete the giant “X” over America that the Great American Eclipse of 2017 started.”
Just what is the Math that causes that?
Having witnessed the 2017 totality, do I dare go witness the 2024?
Is there an intersection of the two?
If there is, fortunately I won’t be there. [It sounds too dangerous]
As the old redneck said, “That don’t make no sense.”
i blame climate change
But... was there a simutaneous emergence of cicada broods?
I remember the end of world back in the early 80s when all 9 planets were in alignment. It was early in the morning when I went ouside to go to work and I looked up into a crystal clear rural North Carolina sky and all that were visible to the naked eye. It was beautiful. The Chicoms had been forecasting woe and destruction for months but nothing happened.
I thought it was graboids...
Wow, I thought there was just ONE big New Madrid temblor in 1811 / 1812, not three. And those are HUGE!
* December 16, 1811 M8.1
* January 23, 1812 M7.8
* February 7, 1812, M8.8
Going through three in three weeks would sure make you believe the world was ending.
We were living in Chesterfield, MO on Nov 9, 1968 (I was 17) when a big New Madrid quake hit. I was working in the garage and didn't know what was happening when Dad came running out of the house yelling "get out!" We ran to the back yard and watched things shake, then it was over. Then five years later, I decided I wanted more of that fun and moved to San Francisco.
