The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) said the quake occurred some 77 km (48 miles) south-southwest of Alexandroupolis, between the islands of Lemnos and Samothrace, at a depth of 10 km (6 miles).

Greek police said the quake had caused minor damage to shops and houses on the two islands.

Karl Rove also had an earthquake machine he kept in the basement of the White House. He would use it to entertain the Koch brothers when they came over to drop off their bags of money for George Bush.
