I am still amazed, in awe even, at the exponential magnitude of force involved in each step up the scale for earthquakes.
Nor are most of the buildings on the west coast.Well, it is unusual, also, the buildings and infrastructure on the East Coast are not Earthquake ready.
I didn't know about the impact in Vancouver, but I'm not surprised.But, and I do not exaggerate, the biggest 'shake' I ever experienced was when Mt St Helen's blew.
That rattled and broke windows across Vancouver while it was barely felt in Seattle
There is an indication that earthquakes have been on the rise, but obviously people have their own explanations: https://kieranmulvey.wordpress.com/...-reported-earthquakes-has-risen-since-1960-4/Oh please. this has been going on for more than a millennia. There are numerous earthquakes on the planet at any given time as are their conflicts.
Sounds dumb enough to be a Trump plan alright!Yes. Based on reports I have heard, Trump has conspired with various foreign entities to have caused the quake in hope that it would destroy Manhattan, thus making it highly unlikely that he'll have to pay James or go to jail for Bragg.

A friend who lives on Kirkland Lake has a geologist husband. He took me up the mountain about 2008 and the damage was still evident. Trees were swept to the ground and the ponds were full of logs.
There were pockets of renewal but I guess it takes a long time for nature to recover from something so traumatic.
Did you even bother to read your link?There is an indication that earthquakes have been on the rise, but obviously people have their own explanations: https://kieranmulvey.wordpress.com/...-reported-earthquakes-has-risen-since-1960-4/
OMG, that's horrid! You must have felt stunned!I passed through a neighborhood on a school bus a few minutes before it was wiped out by a tornado.
Trump is going to tell the nation that if he is not elected in November, he will blot out the Sun. To demonstrate his great power, he will give a demonstration in the middle of the United States on Monday April 8th.It's cuz Jehovah is mad.
Why does Canada get a demonstration? I've already decided to vote for Biden, again.Trump is going to tell the nation that if he is not elected in November, he will blot out the Sun. To demonstrate his great power, he will give a demonstration in the middle of the United States on Monday April 8th.

Too young to really understand it. It was a trailer park. They don't fare well in tornados.OMG, that's horrid! You must have felt stunned!
But you remembered it....Too young to really understand it. It was a trailer park. They don't fare well in tornados.
Collateral DamageWhy does Canada get a demonstration? I've already decided to vote for Biden, again.
That was shallow.The one in NJ was extremely shallow. 11 Km?
Oh, the Champaign-Urbana folks think we "down staters" are nothing but hay seed hicks, we are, but we didn't take a shine to how them "up staters" looked down their noses at us!Maybe I didn't really give it a chance but what I've seen of Illinois wasn't anything to write home about. I was stationed at Chanute AFB that is now decommissioned in Champaign county for AF tech school, and it just seemed to be out in the middle of a corn field. That was it.
But then again Indiana isn't much better.
I have watched so many documentary programs on that event, even watching it on the news as it happened, I just can't imagine the enormity of it.But, and I do not exaggerate, the biggest 'shake' I ever experienced was when Mt St Helen's blew.

Yeah, I know I am living in the "kill" zone if the Yellowstone Caldera decides to burp in my lifetime.Nor are most of the buildings on the west coast.
The post-quake rebuild in San Francisco lasted until the next civic election and as dumped and "too expensive"
No body's ready. I know, I live on the west coast.
Trust me, no one has a ****ing clue. The best guess is four days to clear the streets from 'balcony debris' before they can search for victims......
I'm sure southern Illinois is much nicer than the flat boring northern part of the state. Not a big city person either so Chicago does nothing for me.Oh, the Champaign-Urbana folks think we "down staters" are nothing but hay seed hicks, we are, but we didn't take a shine to how them "up staters" looked down their noses at us!
I don't believe there is any evidence of a ramping of up seismic and volcanic activity.Yeah, I know I am living in the "kill" zone if the Yellowstone Caldera decides to burp in my lifetime.
We just have no clue yet what this Earth can toss our way.
I have this creeping feeling we are in the early stages of a ramping up of seismic and volcanic activity.
That we will be learning a whole lot more soon about plate tectonics, the ring of fire and the New Madrid fault line.
I hope I am wrong!I don't believe there is any evidence of a ramping of up seismic and volcanic activity.

O.K. but it does become rolling hills at least doesn't it?
You ain't been to Southern Illinois then.
