Earthquake!

Felt it in Columbus GA for about 10 seconds. This is what they were talking about on the news this morning:
Earthquakes in the central and eastern U.S., although less frequent than in the western U.S., are typically felt over a much broader region. East of the Rockies, an earthquake can be felt over an area as much as ten times larger than a similar magnitude earthquake on the west coast. A magnitude 4.0 eastern U.S. earthquake typically can be felt at many places as far as 100 km (60 mi) from where it occurred, and it infrequently causes damage near its source. A magnitude 5.5 eastern U.S. earthquake usually can be felt as far as 500 km (300 mi) from where it occurred, and sometimes causes damage as far away as 40 km (25 mi).

Yeah, I was in a vehicle too! This earthquake was pretty odd in how many states felt it! I think they said like 23? Someone please correct me if I am wrong.
I didn't even feel it when I was in the vehicle.. kind of mad about that lol.. never felt an earthquake

Gee, now you have freezing winters, hot humid summers, tornadoes, hurricanes, and EQ's...makes S. CA look even better.
I guess they just had one in Trinidad, CO too...two of my bro's have second homes near there.
Greg (a little shaky-shaky is good for ya)

I'll take all of that to not have to deal with crazy PC California politicians, and this is coming from a NY'er where we have our own share of crazy politicians!

They DO get a little old...I don't know WHAT we ever did before they showed up to save us from ourselves.

However, I'll take the nice weather and my proximity to the beach hands down.

Nah, I like my changing seasons... AND, I live 2 miles away from from the Ocean. Long Island has some of the best beaches in the country.

That's what I thought (in a different way, of course)... arent long island beaches polluted?
 
Of course they are...but with all the toxic fumes he has been breathing in new york, he sees them as beautiful.
