You realize literally hundreds of ~3.0 mag earthquakes happen everyday?

That is correct. But not in Georgia.

Actually, yes they do.

Do you actually live here?

Thats why Georgia Tech maintains a seismology department that monitors tremors.  Most of them however are so small that they're never worth mentioning.

The Chattahoochee river bed for example, is a part of a long dead fault line... and the entire state is filled with some of North America's most ancient of fault lines; hence the Appalachian Mountains are the oldest mountain range in the entire world and were at one time as large as the Alps and Rockies!

There are Native American legends of a massive earthquake rocking the South Eastern lands of North America, long before "white man" first arrived...

Atlanta has had 2 earthquakes in the 4.0 range over the past 8 years... but they were so insignificant that they didn't really do much other then rattle some windows and were not worth any major media attention other then local mention.
