A pair of magnitude-3.9 earthquakes has rumbled through central Arkansas this week, about a month after two companies halted operations at nearby injection wells over concerns they may be linked to seismic activity plaguing the region.

Tsunami at the catfish pond done wrecked itself a double-wide trailer and caused a Honda generator to go meltdown.
Unfeelable in LA, wake me at 6.5, please, but only if there's like an interesting tsunami heading for Malibu. If I can remember where I left it, I should put my board on the other side of the PCH, Dude.
3.9? I mean you can't even see that in an aquarium, Dude.
About a year ago I did a brief report on the fatalities related to the oil and natural gas industries in AR.
Man, that fracking business is some seriously bad stuff.
That,s sarcasm, right?

Nevermind. That was just Huckabee shifting his LazyBoy.
3.9
That’s just Hillary getting off the Greyhound bus.
3.9?
The beer farts at a Packers game here in WI register higher with the usgs.
But it would be a shame to waste a good crisis, so let’s make a doomsday movie about it. okay?
But, most importantly, are the nuclear reactors holding? ;)
Tsunami wouldn’t be the issue in the Midwest in a major event. Dam and levy failures would be much more of a concern for that region.
Can you back that statement up with facts and figures?
Arkansas is a rumbling again.
It is the Drums...the natives are restless tonite.
Back in the 1920s, long before we bought the property, a gas company drilled a gas well and hit-GAS! It caught on fire and scared those hillbillies so bad no one would lease drilling rights for years!
The hillbillies thought the gas company had drilled into HELL and the devil was coming out to get them!
The fatalities were not all that high, all things considered.
However, the most alarming thing to me was the way the companies disposed of the water they used, and how they contaminated surrounding areas.
I may still a copy of the research I did. I don’t think I’d want to publish it here because it was a freelance project I did for a well known law firm. But I’ll look for it and see if I can pull the numbers out.
