1. Yep, California with something like 37 quakes in one day... Yikes.. n/t

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. Speaking of Cali my three feathered quake detectors

have been hard to get to bed. Parrots get ahem skittish... of course they are all but reliable... but tonight was bad with the Nanday. He simply refused to go to bed as he usually does. And then he just squawked for a while.

5. California typically has many small quakes

I wouldn't take this map as something unusual. :shrug:

[nadinbrzezinski]

15. No but the ammont of 5+ we have had in the Western Pacific

are unusual.

If we had even a series of three here people would be asking WTF over.

2. That it is...

But after hearing about all the quake activity recently, I'm not surprised.

This is why it's called "The Ring of Fire."

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. That it is... but these many quakes in a series...

at times precede something like volcanic eruptions...

3. I thought we had three more years =( n/t

10. That's great - it starts with an earthquake

That's great, it starts with an earthquake,
birds and snakes, an aeroplane
Lenny Bruce is not afraid.

Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn -
world serves its own needs, don't misserve your own needs.
Feed it off an aux speak, grunt no, strength no.
Latter starts to clatter with fear fight, down height.
Wire in a fire, representing seven games in a government for hire and a combat site.
Left of west, was a coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck.
Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped.
Look at that low playing! Fine then.
Uh oh, overflow, population, common food, but it'll do.
Save yourself, serve yourself.
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed.
Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right - right.
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

19. Yes, aren't these taking place on either side of the plate? As a reaction

to each other? I have been watching the volcanoes and earthquakes in the area of Samoa and wondering if the plate is not working up to a big shift?
