Well, I bet their buildings aren’t built to withstand earthquakes. And of course everything is relative. Depends on what you’re used to.

Just heard on NY1 that it was felt all the way up to Rhode Island. If that’s the case, it may have been felt in Canada too.

Fault Lines?

We actually live just inside the outer rim of a gigantic meteor crater.

This thing is one of the bigger ones and defines an area called The Fall Line.

Huge chunks of the Earth were turned on end revealing banded iron formations, and veins of gold.

This area is also on top of some very stretched continental mass so it's real thin between us and the magma ~

What that means is we can have big earthquakes.

I felt it in Dover, Delaware, on the third floor of a three-story building. It lasted about fifteen seconds, and I bolted like a bat out of hell down the stairs and out the door.

“Isnt there a nuke in Mineral VA? Any word on it?”

Hope not. Obama and the dems have stopped all required maintenance and upgrades on our nuclear missile silos for the last two years.

Felt it here in the greater Louisville/southern Indiana area....as did my son - in downtown Louisville

To be honest, a earthquake in the 6 range, being felt over such a vast region, is a little concerning.

You can search for world fault lines and you won’t see anything on the eastern side of the US. Though I have a feeling somebody might try to put one over here, now that we’ve had one and felt it for so far.
