I think its safe to say that I've been through more earthquakes than our Geology PhD ( ROFL ) Rustballs and Staph combined. And...they aren't cool.
You can feel them when they are 3.0 magnitude. The geologist is full of shit.
Seriously. Too funny.Geology PhD ( ROFL )

He's so full of it you mean.I suppose the people in Oklahoma are going to begin to care. And I wouldn't consider a 5.6 magnitude one so small that people can't even feel them. I bet if it was in your state, close to where you live, you might care.
The largest-ever recorded quake in Oklahoma was caused by the injection of wastewater, a byproduct of oil extraction, into the ground, new research confirms.
On Nov. 6, 2011, a series of earthquakes, including a 5.6-magnitude temblor, struck the rural town of Prague, about 37 miles (60 kilometers) east of Oklahoma City, crumbling homes in the area and damaging a federal highway. The quake could be felt as far away as Milwaukee.
Oil Extraction Causes Biggest Recorded Earthquake in Oklahoma
I've lived through several that were magnitude 7 or above. Homes that are built well have no problem with magnitude 6 or below. The issue is quakes do occur in the central US, but they are so uncommon that the building codes don't reflect their existence.
The New Madrid quakes back in 1812 (magnitude 8.2+) made the Mississippi river flow backwards for three days, and when another one of those hits it will lay waste to whichever region it hits.
You were lucky. I was in California during the 1994 earthquake and it was felt 60 miles north.....it was a tad over 6. I was up beyond Palmdale and it woke me up, our bed felt like it was swinging from side to side. It did a lot of damage in the area where it happened. I have a scrapbook on all the horrible damage that it caused. People were killed.
We have no guarantee that the quakes in Oklahoma will remain small. I'm sure the people in Oklahoma are rethinking this, as they were in denial for quite a while.
I was 400 yards from the epicenter of the Northridge quake staying with a friend when the quake hit. I quite literally woke up in midair. I was also present for the 1972 Sylmar quake (about a mile from the epicenter) and was living part time in the Bay Area when the Loma Prieta quake hit. Trust me. I probably have more experience with earthquakes than you ever will.
Wow! That's awesome. You are so cool!

And yetg I know more about it than you ever will and have proven it on numerous occasions. So what does that make you ....sweetie?
Having lived in Oklahoma for a couple of years, I am sure that the will tell you that god caused the earthquakes because of something a couple of gays did together in Tulsa.
You don't know more about earthquakes than I do. You are FOS. You are a blowhard. Like the time you told me a person cannot walk around the South of France at night without being attacked by gangs of blacks and Muslims. You don't know anything about it. You are FOS. Period. And your attempt to be demeaning toward me by repeatedly calling me sweetheart does not pass unnoticed. You prove yourself to be a deeply troubled male Chauvanist who cannot hold any debate with a woman without trying to demean her for being a woman. How pathetic you are. Disgusting POS that you are. Pathetic and more pathetic.He's so full of it you mean.You were lucky. I was in California during the 1994 earthquake and it was felt 60 miles north.....it was a tad over 6.

Oh, yes I do. I have shown it in this thread. You ignore well known facts due to your pre-conceived opinion. And yes, I am totally disrespecting you, I'm glad you noticed because you deserve none.

You get what you give sweetie. You accuse me of being a liar, and you disrespect me, so you can expect to get it back tenfold. I don't know which planet you come from, where you think you can heap abuse on someone and expect to not get shit back in return. What are you 12? This is the real world and there are people out there who are a lot tougher, a lot smarter, and a lot better educated than you are, such as myself. Get used to it.

The problem is, you are not worth using rhetorical skills on. You have none. You don't even know what they are.

When I am posting in black I am not a Mod. I am a mere member of this Board. Only when I post in RED am I wearing my Mod hat. And once again, what makes you think you can heap abuse on people and not expect shit back? Do you think there's a sign on this forum that says the "customer is always right", well here's the deal, you're not the customer, you're a guest, just like me. And yes, I am most certainly far better educated than you. Based on your pathetic argument skills I have ZERO doubt of that. You argue like my 8 year old daughter, but she's better at it than you are!
You are the one who has taken this thread off topic, not me. You claimed you knew all about earthquakes, more than others, and had more experience of them. You were taken to task about those claims and used abuse and threats as are response rather than a reasonable response. You can claim things until your head explodes, that does not mean they are truths or that anyone is going to believe you.You are just as bad as he is.

Are you going to add something useful to the discussion about fracking causing earthquakes, or are you going to just whine and snivel?

Pot, meet kettle. Kettle, this is pot. Pot is a moron who thinks she can try and bluster her way out of an embarrassing confirmation of her lack of education. She also refuses to address the OP which is about fracking and how it causes earthquakes....something we geologists have known about for decades, but which these super smart silly people are only now figuring out and they are skeered. Skeered I tell you!
