Looky an official "Who Cares" poster!
LOL
RWCon must be missing dissing the Scott Peterson Trial thread.
RW Julia Robert had twins today and there is a thread going on it I bet they could use a "Who Cares" poster over there.
The volcanologists need access to the volcano to set up their equipment. They sometimes are just barely off and safely away from the volcano when it blows up.
An increase in earthquakes is often a sign of the volcanic lava and gasses breaking rock subsurface "finding" a way up to the surface. Mt. St. Helen's blew in 1980 right after a large quake. The quake did not cause it, but it definitely was a big warning. :-)
Hey, BD, did you see the "JAPAN WAITS FOR THE BIG ONE..." story? After all these 6.x quakes, and a 7.1 "knocks out power temporarily to 1,600," they're waiting for the big one. :)
There is some activity in the Adriatic as well. Lots of creaking and groaning, or maybe just better reporting.
Ping.
Thanks for chiming in. It is fascinating watching our planet keeps changing.
No, I had not seen that story on the Japanese anticipation of the Big One. Thanks for the link! I thought that most of their quakes were catastrophic. Shudder thinking about a larger one.
Easter Island 6.6
4,000 miles from nowhere, literally out in the open ocean.
If you look at the ring of fire and put your finger in the middle of the ring that's about where Easter Island is.
So far this past week quakes have been working clock wise around the Ring of Fire, be interesting to see if it follows around.
Praying for micro quakes US state side if it does.
Stateside the area due North of you and in the Archipelago have been getting a lot of moderate sized quakes.
No I didn't.
Boy they have had the big red letters saying they won't for quite awhile.
Then yesterday we had the 3.+ so maybe and they said that cracked the dome.
Hmmmmm. Magna flow coming?
