THX FOR THE PING.

. . . HMMM . . .

IIRC someone made a prediction keyed to a huge Japanese quake. I don’t think this one is big enough.

It was not a happy prediction. I don’t recall the specifics.

That's a relief to hear, Ronin. Thanks for the update.

Please log that you didn't feel it on the USGS site in their
Did You Feel It? section. It will help them in the study of quakes and also helps them make better predictions about potential quake damages. Thanks.

Misawa was like living in a tunnel under a railway—always shaking!
