Gaia is angry. We must appease her by throwing Al Gore into a volcano. That is all.

That wouldn't work. The volcano would just spit out Gore and be angrier then before Gore was tossed into the volcano.

And nothing on the west coast of the US for weeks now... I wonder if it’s saving up for something.

[Quix]

Leaving for church shortly.

Please ping me to the USGS link when available.

Sigh.

Love those people.

Sounds like it’s somewhat in the center of the Island.

[caww]

Like our world needs more shaking up...at this rate and all the money being doled out every country will go broke... Someone said California next...but they have said that for years..

[Quix]

No, more Southern 1/3 of the Island.

[Rushmore Rocks]

Thanks for the ping.

Earth has been pretty active lately, but not unusual.

[AFreeBird]

Mother Earth sure is rumbling these days. Wonder what torqued her off?

We must appease her by throwing Al Gore into a volcano.

That's cruelty to volcanoes. Besides, I though he was belched up from somewhere deep down below (how else would he be so knowledgeable about the temperature inside the earth's core?)

[Quix]

GOT IT. THANKS.

THAT is the best suggestion I've heard in years!!! Ya think it will work? Heck, I guess it would be worth a shot. What do we have to lose? LOL!

Historic Seismicity

[onyx]

Yes, that’s been said about CA forever. I’m native born and raised and have beem warned about the big one all of my life. Meanwhile, the big ones rock other places.

[Quix]

Seems likely to be in more of a mountainous, tribal, less populated area.

MAY GOD BE WITH THEM ALL.

[caww]

Quiet uh? Calm before the storm maybe?...Hope not..I have friend in Carmel...right on the ocean!

Tainan;

HOW ARE YOU DOING? What news can you give us?

[mcshot]

Round him up and tape his mouth so he doesn’t holler “I told you so” on the way down.

[I Hate Obama]

Better be quick about it. We leave in an hour.

Natural Law, it is good to hear that you're safe. Thanks for the update.

I was thinking-and I’m sure someone will correct me-that last Friday-Saturday a 7.0 Japan followed in ten hours by an 8.8 Chile, isn’t normal or typical.

[Tai_Chung]

That’s not good. Too close to home!
