    Earthquake

    Just experienced my first earthquake here in North Carolina which I was not expecting. Hopefully my QCN sensor picked it up and it'll show in the result somewhere !

    So do you know if your sensor caught anything? They said one in Raleigh did.
    I think it might be one of my two. I have asked over in their forum to make sure I am understanding the results.

    I think these are the host id's. http://qcn.stanford.edu/sensor/img/Virginia_M5.8.pdf Unfortunately not mine - which to me means the sensor doesn't work that well as the house was definitely shaking !

    Hopefully the prediction from some geological experts not come true that a new strong earthquake will come in end september begin october in the usa.
    And now the scary hurricane irene going towards NY on its destructive path .... brrrr
    I am glad not to live in the usa

    My mini country almost has non of these monster events

    Well except if one super old mega super vulcano in the german eiffel erupts we would have a problem, but i guess if that one blows it would have a global effect like the mega vulcano in yellowstone park. The scary thing is both these giants are rising slowly so someday these 2 super monsters are gonna blow but hopefully far away in the future.

    And on the earthquake front we are scared if its a 3.1 quake, but lol as long as i remember in 50 years had only one which rocked my house for 15 seconds and this only cause i lived at the 16th floor

    The only true danger is that some mega flood/tsunami sinks us back into the sea , which also happens once in a few thousand years.
