felt alittle shake about 10 mins ago in los angeles.

6.1 new one

Uh oh.

Those well expired prophesy's about the san andreas fault line breaking might come true.

Ever see the first superman? Lex luther tries too nuke the fault line sinking california.

Lots of folks on twitter are saying they got woken up the eq, so it must have been prettty strong onshore to wake folks up. Not good.

Tsunami watch after the first one, but NO WARNING.

Rodney Dangerfield giving you the 666.

Wow, I remember a post I´ve seen somewhere, where one claims that an unusual quiet period of solar activity precedes some great earthquakes in Earth. I did not got that seriously, but, after reading this post, and knowing that the Sun is unusually quiet for quite a week, I´m wondering if is there any truth in this theory...

FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO CHECK THE SOLAR ACTIVITY IN A QUITE REAL-TIME MODE, I SUGGEST THIS FREE IPHONE/IPAD APP
