Is The North American Craton moving again? There is evidence to suggest it has come to life. Details inside.

informed1, I was going to be quiet today and just read, but looking at the photos of the Cap again, I had a thought. It may be really dumb and if it is I'll just stick to reading. I'm just a mom that played w/clay and baked w/all kinds of dough. When the clay was taller and had a sharp drop, like the Cap, it would always break. I know this is really simplistic, but, I wonder...is it possible? I'm just a little SW of you, BTW.

Thread: **NORTH AMERICA CRATON** HUGE EARTHQUAKE COMING
The Chosen One has a post on what we are talking about. What I think is interesting is his youtube link. I am not a fan of Dutch, but here he has some interesting stuff. In this vid, he's wrong on a lot of things, but has interesting ideas. Dutch is not reading some of the earthquake graphs right. Especially some of the St. Helens ones. What he thinks are earthquakes are not. What I find interesting is the earthquakes he shows on the 3d map. There's no Texas earthquake, so that could of been a clue. He explains Oregon and Washington quakes as part of the Craton which is not.



My humble opinion on Dutch is, he jumps to conclusion to fast.

The Juan de Fuca is slipping South, While eastern edge of San Andreas Fault is slipping North West . Los Angeles and San Francisco will one day be neighbors.

I used to drive through there often and always noticed the signs on the highways "You are now at the Continental divide in Texas.

Funny, I was thinking when clay is dry it produces cracks, now you have the opposite end of the craton full of water.. Could this make it rise on the dry end? It's already weakend. Again I don't know shit, but just thinking..I think in symplicity. I have found that people who know a lot about a certain situation can sometimes miss the symplicity of it.. Hope that makes sense.

Yes it does diminish the chances of it remaining quiet.

Yes, I don't follow much of Dutchsense. His stuff actually makes no sense half the time. It's he thinks he knows but doesn't. A very smart guy making guesses. Using very nice words along with it.

Not quite sure of the dynamics yet, but what I am certain of is that it is moving at a faster pace now. These quakes are evidence to that.

If we can just find a map that list all >1 quakes in 1 year for the USA, we would get a clear picture of what is happening. That is what we need right now.

Anyone up for this?

I had no idea this thread even existed, So if others are noticing the same then something is up!.

I am suggesting PIN for more input from GLP'ers.


SHIN THIS PIT mods!

I would, but wouldn't know where to start.Not that good with programs yet. LOL. What would be interesting is a time lapse of these events. Wow and to try and find a resources to get accurate events that have been logged. So many not logged.

Well....SHIT! After I had popped into your long running thread and posed the question...your answer did provide at least a bit of relief (even if only for a while). I think the work you do is wonderful and remarkable. I couldn't shake from my mind the fact that the New Madrid just seems so...ripe.

But I figured your response gave us a bit longer. The NMSZ has seen quite the bit of stressors placed on it though. With all of the flooding...and then the subsequent levee breaching in order to direct water into allow water to go into "flood plains" or whatever they were calling them....

This is a troubling development, to say the least. If the NAC is activating...I'm concerned that the straw that will break the camel's back (so to speak) with be one solid smack from a CME.

5 *'s and a pin, please!

shit went to pin it and I think I suggested unpin... My Bad. Please take back my unpin suggest MODs.. Ughh. Bad me Bad me

"The Earth is a living breathing being and seismic activity is directly related to human corruption."

I think your right. This has to do with timing of everything or even one thing.

Mahala, that's it! It's not just dry here, it's been baked all summer long. Caliche is a weird kind of dirt. When it's wet, it gets very slippery. It's almost oily, and very heavy. When it's dry, like now, it's packed harder than cement. I'm afraid if ElQ is right, we could be in for it. Makes me nervous, 'cause daughter and family live in FW area. Thanks for seeing what I was trying to say. Never got to go to college, but I READ and, hopefully, LEARN!

I live up here with the same kind of stuff. How I hate it. This is why I understand what your saying..
I never went to college and what I wanted to study was vet stuff, though, I had taken the highest classes I could in high school on advanced physics and anthropology.
I also have 2 half sisters that live in the Fort Worth area.
I would love to be able to pre warn them if I feel something is imminent. Problem is I have to feel certain in my confirmation. With more people having input I think we can come to a good conclusion.

Oops! Forgot to say, I'll ask daughter about places to look for the maps when she gets off work. Who needs a meteorologist when you have a geographer in the family!?!

It's pinned!

Folks need to read this shit! El Q's work has been solid and done for the awareness of folks!

El Q, do you write into George Ure? If not, perhaps you could consider it? I know many folks that read his site each day would be interested to read your work.

My dad and myself both firmly believe that the sun puts out all sorts of geo-effective energy.

With the NAC activating, the more that see this and are made aware...the better.

ETA: Folks who live within any potentially affected areas may want to note where poorly constructed or vulnerable nuclear power plants are in relation to them...and perhaps start charting an escape route.

I myself live in one of the worst areas. I'm in the NW corner of Illinois....and both the Cordova nuclear power plant and Byron could experience some difficulties if the New Madrid were to experience a hard earthquake....even as far north as we are from the actual New Madrid fault.

Be back after bit. Have to go get a shit load of hay for the horses. No pun intended on the shit.. LOL.. Yes goes in one end out the other.

Here I found a way using Google Earth.

These are all the >1 magnitude earthquakes for the USA for 2011. You can clearly see the activity bordering the entire North American Craton.

LoL. I am going over to Iowa at the beginning of October to help my step-dad with some more baling.

I enjoy it. Better than being trapped inside of 4 brick walls all day. If it warm where you are at....just make sure you take some hydration with ya.

See ya when you get back.

Here is for 2010;

[link to earthquake.usgs.gov]

Notice the quake swarms all the way up to the northern most part of the Craton in Canada.

Thank you for that.

you should be quoting dutchsinse who actually put all this info together, which has been passed off now as the work of others
