are you sure?
i live in this area and havenŽt heard of this story.
how would that happen, i mean with the epicentrum in slovakia?
ThereŽs nothing that could create an earthquake.

crazy,
i have never heard about that.
But thanks, now iŽm looking forward to the next one,

i had a japanese friend back then, who was on the same floor, but did not notice anything (he was the the only one not to notice anything): he said he was so used to it in japan that he would often not notice small ones anymore, somehow his mind and body just gets used to it... well, that's what he told me.

Heh, one of the best things about living in Britain is that nature isn't really out to get you. Adders? PAH!

yeah that's the Popocateptl volcano... we got quite a lot of "tectonic movement" down here, the last BIG one being around 2000 or so.
i don't have that much probs with the quakes, but getting REALLY worried if this thing ever blows up... *urgh*

Pat.

Proper earthquakes, like proper tornados and volcanoes, are things I'd really like to witness for the interest, but I'm very glad I live somewhere where they won't happen.


Going through tornado season is horrible Hipster! One of the only things that will get me in a true panic is when I hear sirens.

i actually saw a mini tornado in nebraska earlier this year which was amazing. alright it was very tiny and would hardly cause anyone to get into a panic but a tornado nontheless.
