DAMN
A bookstore collapsed in Culpeper and there was one injury.
Yes, but along with it would come new laws that would force all homeowners to spend money they don’t have to upgrade.
ROFL! Rove handed the Earthquake Machine over to Sarah!
Kate Hutton from Cal Tech is on a forum I am on and she said this was on a rare Appalachian Fault, not New Madrid.
report is that PA Rte. 23 was closed due to a water main break that seems to have coincided with the quake
I was just a couple of minutes from driving that stretch of highway when the quake occurred, and then I heard on the radio not to go there
right next to Valley Forge National Park
Felt on Route 440 Jersey City..
Newark Star Ledger recording at time.

A friend of mine in Rhode Island felt it.
We in WI, did not.
~sarcasm on~
sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry
Actually, this is what happens when TEN MILLION ILLEGALS all decide to run for the border at the same time...
LOL!
I sure did feel it. My office shook for maybe close to 1/2 a minute?. I never thought I would feel an earthquake here in eastern NC!
It means that the operators manually shut the plant down to do an in depth inspection of the plant.
There are places that can not be looked at with the plant operating because of high radiation levels.
LOL. Leftist can't stand not being in control.
If I hadn’t been taking a few minutes longer on a leisurely lunch I would have been at Valley Forge National Park, which was my destination after lunch..... my park outing rudely interrupted by an earthquake, but I haven’t heard of anything too bad yet, other than the water main break closing PA Rte. 23.
It does appear that it is tilting...
****
Please look at the horizon, and remember what a right angle triangle is.
They did not say ... hope it was a little book.
The fiends in DC better take note.
Actually shook our factory in Rutland, VT long enough for the owner to have everyone evacuate the building...weird...
It’s
OBAMAGEDDON
Sounds horrendous! We are out of the surge area (altho I assume that in a really really bad one all bets are off) so we had no flooding. But just the massive area of damage is such a mess to deal with. With tornados the swath of damage is much smaller, so you can get away from the area of damage much more easily. We could go fill our tank with gas for instance, after the tornado (once the trees were removed from the road near the house, which took one day—well, less than a full day). It took days to be able to fill up with gas after the hurricane because the area of damage was so large.
And Wilma was nothing of the scale of Agnes. When I watched the videos of the tsunami in Japan I thought the same thing. The scale was just so massive, give me a tornado. I know if you are right in the path, forget it, but your odds are so much better to avoid being in the path.
No, but I was driving over a bunch of Volts with whatever it was I was driving.
Then I was rudely woken up, apparently I have to go fill in for my boss tonight.
*UGH*
