You live in a land made for martinis...always shaken, never stirred. I can't imagine living in place that has that number of earthquakes. It must be "exciting".

It is exciting sometimes. About 10 years ago I took a group of students to the geophysics office. They told me we sit on the convergence of three tectonic plates and that we have an average of about 50 ‘quakes per day. We don’t feel even one quake per day. So, there is a bit of movement that is too small for humans to register.
