6.3 Earthquake in Arizona.... (But he means NE Nevada)

Moonliner · 02-21-2008, 07:45 AM

Anyone feel that one?

Location with respect to nearby cities:
17 km (11 miles) ESE (103 degrees) of Wells, NV
32 km (20 miles) NNW (343 degrees) of Spruce, NV
39 km (24 miles) S (183 degrees) of Wilkins, NV
70 km (43 miles) WNW (303 degrees) of West Wendover, NV
244 km (152 miles) W (279 degrees) of Salt Lake City, UT

Don't think it was AZ.....AZ isn't 152 miles west of Salt Lake City. unless that's the typo you're referring to rather than "earhtquake".

Yeah, northeastern Nevada near the Utah border. Here

My theory: key debris from the spy satellite landed there and the government exploded a nuclear bomb to ensure nobody would get their hands on it.

My Bad. I meant Norway. I always get those two confused.

Hmmm....excellent thought. Either that or the Aliens in Area 51 escaped and we had to nuke them.

Could be. And they've already started on a remake of The Andromeda Strain so that when people speak up they can be disregarded as crackpots unable to distinguish fiction from reality.

I love that movie. I can't wait to see how they bastardise another of my childhood memories. Wait a second. On second thought, Yes I can.

I understand the initial confusion: I am constantly mixing up Arizona and Norway

You know - that is so weird. I woke up thinking about earthquakes and felt something. I figured it was something else, but couldn't shake the feeling. No pun intended.

Thank you - I wouldn't have looked that one up!

And chances are, I was the only one close enough to feel it...
