Is it my imagination or has the entire Pacific “ring of fire” been exceptionally active in say the last 45-60 days?

I don't know about the Pacific, but it's been on the radio a few times down here lately.

?next on down through Washington state, then Oregon, then the big one for San Fransisco?

They're lamenting the flight of families (like in Mom, Dad and kids kind) from the city - and we know who flocks TO the city.

Now, were YOU God, what would you do?

What is that old story about wicked cities...

Um seems like it to me.

Alaska and the next Clockwise in the ring is Washington/Oregon.

Micro quakes in Wash. make a perfect little line from Seattle down to Portland Oregon in the last week.

Alaska is always active. There are charts you can look at. It’s amazing how many small quakes they always have.

Can’t hurt to be on the safe side.

I was remembering the Bible passage last night about quakes and more quakes.

Not so nervous when the big quakes hit Indonesia but when they tick around like they seem to have been this last couple of weeks to our area I start Praying for micro quakes only.

Not many long haulers on the coast the supply trucks for Safeway/Wal Mart/Gas ect. drive over the coast range to their designation and then back over.

He will be fine.

148 Peruvians died in a collapsed Cathedral in the August quake there.

So were they a bunch of hedonist gays or something?

What I found interesting was the 5.0 quake near Iceland today. Isn’t that rather unusual? I really don’t know.

When I lived in Alaska we were always having quakes.....large and small. I’m afraid we became a bit complacent about them. Not a good thing to do.
