Default Earthquake!!!
Wow!

It lasted for what seemed an eternity. No news on the wire just yet.

Hope it wasn't the New Madrid because it could've done some damage along the Mississippi River.

5.2 quake.

7 to 10 percent chance of an 8.0 or greater in the next 50 years.

Southern Illinois is on the biggest fault line in the world actually. I have always wanted to go through some natural disasters, I slept right through it today. Word was that if a 7.5 quake rattled SIU, it would have destroyed all the buildings.

I hope Crown2Club is ok, he lives in Evansville, which was the epicenter I guess. Skippy to is somewhere in that area I think.

I am just a huge fan. I really want to do some toronado chasing down near Oklahoma and Kansas, like that show on Discovery, HUGE FAN.

In Carbondale, there was a real serious storm coming through, so inside of going inside, got into 'the Scav' and tore ass to get to the middle of a field and see if I could see a tornado, no luck
