Thread: Earthquakes, where next and when?

Lots of earthquakes in the past few weeks. What's going on? While watching the news last night I asked Carrie why there were so many lately, not that she would know. Not a moment later the news anchor stated that scientists were asked why there were so many earthquakes lately!? Their reply, it's just a coincident.

Some of you may fine the map I am linking you to interesting. Let us know your thoughts.

Earthquakes In The Last Week

Some genius has been predicting a big one off the coast of Vancouver Island here any time now.

I predict another for Jones, Oklahoma. There have been so many in the last 6months-year I'm not far out on a limb

It's the earth, all those cracks are coming together to form one big one. Once that happens the world will just crack in half and separate into two parts and go flying off into space. So you see the end is near. But I can save you just send me all your possessions and I will send you detailed instructions where we can meet to ride this thing out while everyone else perishes.

Wouldn't it be nice if it divided between 'red' and 'blue' states ? Maybe then the gov could get something done.

For two times all your possessions I can arrange that.

I guess the Earth is clearing her throat...She hasn't even begun to sing yet. We are in Los Angeles and many are predicting the BIG one to happen here. We are way over due...according to estimates!

See this article here for a 3D simulation.

growing up in los angeles i remember all too well the constant fear of "the big one"... it seemed like half of 3rd grade was spent practicing ducking under my desk and burying my head between my knees.. and just my luck.. i spent my time on vacation in northern california during the northridge quake. all those years of living in fear for nothing..

my advice.. just live life and if it happens it happens.. i'm sure the killer bees will get here before then anyway.

A whole lota shakin goin on!!!

Just natural movement of the earths plates. Been going on for millions of years.

There have been a lot more recently, and more tsunamis as well. There has also been more solar flare activity apparently, which could be a factor? Kinda microwaving the earth?

I'm hoping theres a cataclysmic but incredibly localised one right under the office on Sunday so I dont have to go in next week..!
