    Another Quake

    Just had another 5.2, centered in Yucaipa(sp?), when I finally got thru to my kids, my priorities was go check on the dog, then make sure my bike is ok.

    yes, there's something about the very earth no longer being reliably stable that is very unsettling

    I vaguely remember hearing something along the lines of, we had a nice long period of quiet. Now the earth is getting active again, and it will continue to be active for a while.

    Or I could be making it all up.

    Angry

    I think it's related to this rackin' frackin' weather.

    Dumping (again) here in Kalifornia and expected to snow in the mountains.

    Oh, did I say?

    Earthquakes are one of reasons I now live in Washington State. I had my fill of them growing up in Southern California. There's not much worse than being shaken out of bed at 5AM. Sorry to hear they are rumbling again. I have inlaws in Hemet, CA that keep us posted on the weather and the quakes. This has been a weird year for the southwest.
