I know that people in California are used to the ground shaking but not where I live! I was trying to unwind early this morning sitting out on the deck when at about 1:15 the ground shook and I thought I heard some rolling thunder. I didn't think much about the shutter because the older I get ,I shutter quite often, but there were no clouds in the sky. Then they anounced an earth quake of 4.4 mag. We already got the stinking tornados around here(Ark) but this is toooo much. This is the second day for tremors, I think I'll call my insurance.

do you shutter or shudder? Hell, who cares, I shutter

I think the largest earthquake recorded in North America was along this fault.

 

An 8+ quake occured on this fault about 190 years ago. For the complete story, go to:
