I am just waiting for that big red square to land on the west coast.... on the 37th parallel
*groan*....facepalm. I KNEW I was missing something! It was staring me right in the face.....thank you!
What sits on the 37th parallel on the West Coast?????? Mammoth Lakes!

So, how does that relate to Colorado and Virginia. Easy. The both have coalmines near by. To the southwest of Colorado there's a coal mine. And waster water injection. But I won't go there for the time being. But water is in the mix, but not as the main catalyst. West Viginia is famous for it's mines. The waves from the ocean resonated, Hell maybe the coal, isn't it a cyrstal, just black, maybe I'm wrong, watching Breaking Bad in order to improve my chemistry skills. Or there could be quartz mix in and when this quartz vibrated, the waves were amplified. This shaking pushed an already over stressed fault system beyond it's threshold.

Mama, if it helps you any, Yellowstone has been as quiet as a church mouse. And trust me I checked. Daily. All day if I'm home. I've been looking for anything remotely active. ZIP. Yellowstone is hibernating. Thankfully, because next year, every person with a wild idea will be pointing at anything Yellowstone does as a sign. If you start hearing that Yellowstone is blowing up, check here first. We quake geeks will know the data and will have been watching. Yellowstone went to sleep. This allowed me to focus on Arkansas. And by extension the eastern United States. I'll let Muzzy be the expert on New Zealand, afterall he has a vested interest on knowing what's happening there because he lives there. Having been focused on Arkansas and studying the region, I have concluded that the threat of a massive earthquake is very real. And I believe the process of a repeat of 1811/12 has begun. The difference between 1811 and today is we, us. We've been doing all sorts of fracked up things like fracturing. Mining. Etc, etc, etc. We are hastening the process and speeding up the hands of the clock.
More than 1,000 calls were made to the emergency number after the quake on the south east of the island. There was no damage or injuries. The 112 emergency number on the Canary Islands received more than 1,000 calls from concerned members of the public after an earthquake in Agüimes, on the south east of Gran Canaria, on Monday afternoon. None reported any injury or damage to property however. The quake at 2.15 pm was a 3.4 magnitude on the Richter scale, with the epicentre at sea off the coast of Playa del Inglés. Its effects were also felt in Santa Brígida, Telde, La Aldea de San Nicolás and Santa Lucía de Tirajana. There was a small tremor on El Hierro earlier on Monday, where EFE notes more than 3,700 seismic movements have been detected since July 19 this year.
