The wind never stops blowing in Oklahoma.
“While scientists haven’t ruled out natural causes for the increase, many researchers suspect the deep injection wells used for the disposal of fracking wastewater could be causing the earthquake activity.”
Yep, fracking is evil and will lead to death and destruction!
Here in central Oklahoma we worry more about wild fires and tornadoes.
There are two scientists in prison because the government said they should have predicted quakes which occurred last year.
In Italy IIRC,
Exactly. Right now we can be either blown away by a tornado or burned up by a wildfire on any given day.
After looking at all facts, looks like the USGS is playing the blame game to support Obama’s woe is the world and I will save you attitude.
Mods feel free to delete this story.
Was it expensive?
I believe it was around $100 for the year. That is with a $2K deductible. Mainly just to protect in case something really bad happened.
I live south of Tuttle. So far few earthquakes here. Most have been around Jones and Luther. Can you get earthquake insurance from a private company or is it like flood insurance, where the policy is backed up by the government?
I got mine through State Farm, who is offering earthquake insurance to its customers. I have heard of some carriers pulling out of OK and dropping customers.
Thanks.
