damage at Mineral VA seems quite extenstive
Edited on Tue Aug-23-11 04:18 PM by nadinbrzezinski
thankfully nobody is dead, per Mayor of Mineral Va, including quite a bit of cinderblocks failing.

None of this is surprising.

(MSNBC now)

3. It was a very shallow quake
so, yeah, I'd expect quite a bit of damage, especially around the epicenter.

There are no earthquake building codes on the east coast.
