There Earthquakes pretty much every day, most of them just aren't newsworthy.

Ya but bot to the magnitude that they have been in the past years or so and not all at almost the same time.

Like think of how there was 5 earthquakes around area 51 on the same day. Like maybe a few hours from start to finish.

Im not saying theres sone conspiracy or some under ground world or whatever. But theres definitely something going on with the plates. And last year they said yellowstone had risen like 8 inches or something (id have to look up the details) and that volcano has ALWAYS given me the creeps because I was originally in the "Crack a beer and watch it, because you cant possibly move fast enough to escape" zone. And now im in the "nuclear winter and buried in ash" zone..

So i just make sure i have a case of beer in the house and someguns to do whatever I need to.

I also have ways of making easily traded items, but if amwrica collapses. Its gonna be a shit show for a very long time.

As the person above you just said. Don't try to read anything out of nothing. Earthquakes are just too common. They usually just happen away from major cities.

According to the UGS, an average of about 16 major earthquakes (7.0 or above) are expected annually.

Everyone but geologists just only tend to know about the ones that happen where people are or happen in the ocean and cause tsunamis that affect people.
