EARTHQUAKE

Were you in the machine then?

No sense waking up for the fast ones...

If it isn't, then the game is pointless.

I don't remember names very well. And neither locations, I guess. Southern Cal. Thanks, I'll try and remember. Might need to remind me a couple more times, my friend Elmer.

No, heck, no. Why would I be in the washing machine! I was in the clothes dryer, you old goose.

Or maybe the lead has led to deteriorated mental abilities in the other 49 states, such that they no longer recognize (or care about) the hazard provided by lead?

I really don't understand how someone can hate a state. Much less a state they don't live in and have likely never visited.

It's "C10" moonstar... ^^

OK...Stormy... :D

Think 'Island property' for those who slide off the mainland. :D

Who are you responding to Scott? I didn't write that.

Oh, OK. No wonder you have a dry sense of good humor, Stormy. :')

First, they have to survive it.

Thanks, Elmer. I'm working on learning names.

I'm not known as one to fluff people. Just fold right to the point.

Rough and tumble world, and it all comes out in the wash.

My sense of humor tends the wild and zany. But, I do try to keep it under control. Try; just try. Barely, some times.

Several of these 3-4 ones around San Andreas in the last few days. A decent size shakers and few more mud slides and you might just have ocean front property!

If everyone who lives in CA goes to the beaches along the ocean at the same time, CA will crack right off from the mainland. Try it, it might be fun!!!

Well, I believe Oklahoma is now ahead of California in the number of earth quakes. Yesterday they had about a dozen up in North Central Oklahoma. That's talking greater than 3.5. We have only had a couple greater than 5. Ask the oil companies and they will tell you that using injection wells to dispose of the water used in fracking has nothing to do with it.

I personally have only felt 2 of them here in Tulsa but the TV stations get calls all the time when they happen. There was some damage over around Edmond in Central Oklahoma last week. At least one home lost a chimney.

That slice of California is actually the edge of a much larger plate - the Pacific Plate.

So while there is always the chance of a historic quake, that section will not just drop into the ocean, as sensationalists would have us believe.

Dey gotz itz awl wong. My contact within the USGS tells me when The Big One hits, everything East of Reno will sink onto the Atlantic and we'll be left. That's why were called The Left Coast!
