We didn't feel (or hear) it, but we were both asleep.

We felt that one. Well, I felt it. I was too sleepy to figure out what it was and woke the Rat up to ask. He said it was the cats. Sputnik is big enough now that the explanation seemed completely plausible at the time.

* Warning *

According to an Internet website (and you know they are never wrong) you SoCal'ers are at imminent risk of a 6.0 to 7.0 quake.

The time to prepare is now! I suggest you all take turns keeping an eye on NA to insure she does not do anything that would trigger this event.

I love the hand drawn and colored maps.

The website is an interesting business model. Using the "Someone is wrong on the Internet" meme you post a controversial add supported website that brings in the hits as people flock to it just to prove you wrong.

I think the trick is finding just the right type of wrong. For example, ExplodingPuppies.com would probably get a lot of hits but you would be hard pressed to find an advertiser willing to support it.

Predicting a 4-5 magnitude earthquake is not quite like saying it will be sunny here in LA, but close.

I'm kind of amused.

He's predicting earthquakes and selling earthquake survival kits. Sounds like a marketing scheme more than anything else.
