USGS report on Canton quake
quote:
Activities that have induced felt earthquakes in some geologic environments have included impoundment of water behind dams, injection of fluid into the earth's crust, extraction of fluid or gas, and removal of rock in mining or quarrying operations. In much of eastern and central North America, the number of earthquakes suspected of having been induced is much smaller than the number of natural earthquakes, but in some regions, such as the south-central states of the U.S., a significant majority of recent earthquakes are thought by many seismologists to have been human-induced. Even within areas with many human-induced earthquakes, however, the activity that seems to induce seismicity at one location may be taking place at many other locations without inducing felt earthquakes. In addition, regions with frequent induced earthquakes may also be subject to damaging earthquakes that would have occurred independently of human activity.

3.2 magnitude quake, the horror
Using the Richter scale that would be 1/40,000th the intensity of the Nepal quake.
And you have to ignore some pretty damning correlations to not conclude fracking and waste water disposal operations is causing tremors in Oklahoma.

Am I missing the part where someone was trying to claim the Miss quakes were big?

Was watching TV with the Mrs. She felt a little vibration and looked down to my end of the couch and said did you just fart?

No, usually a quake is felt at 3.8 or higher

We had a 3.9 this morning at 4 am in LA area. The wife felt it but I didn't.

Heck, I get more rattling when the freight trains go by 10 times a day. I wouldn't even notice a 3 point anything.

Consider this your first and final warning as to leaving yourself open to comments about your daughter here on the OT.
I resisted only because of your few number of posts.

It felt like a percussion from a detonation, or what I would imagine a car or something exploding right outside your house would feel like.. A single shake. It happened once and then about 30 minutes later happened again. My wife kept asking me what I was talking about she didn't feel either but the second time I walked outside and all my neighbors were walking out of their house at the same time wondering what the hell that was. My first thought was a natural gas line. We've had a couple of those blow here recently.

Many years ago on Christmas Day , a tank blew up at Exxon Refinery I believe. My family was in St. Amant and the house shook. This was about 25-28 miles from the explosion.
