That thing woke me up in S. Central Kansas. Felt some in the past, but that was by far the strongest.

Nope. It is more likely water injection wells

Maybe the brine water used during fracking. Type II wells are my favorite. "out of sight out of mind"

All of these small earthquakes aren't doing shite. We experience them all the time. I care more about making a better economy and creating jobs than some tiny earthquakes.


That's fracked up.

the preliminary magnitude is a 4.7


So roughly 90,000 times less force than a real deal 7.7 earthquake that would actually frick shite up. Got it.

Been threw there... not much around


I grew up there...and you're right. But, there has been a thread going around debating about raising kids is the country, burbs or city and I stayed out of that discussion because I think you can find good things (and bad) in all locals. However, if someone told me that I had to raise my kids in Alfalfa County, I would have no problem doing it. I was able to get a pretty decent education, learned to work on the farm, and was lucky enough to share the few girls we had there with my closest friends.

Ok, maybe the last thing was not a real benefit, but like I said...everywhere has good things and bad things.

It scared the shite out of me this morning. I thought someone was in my house. Dogs went nuts. My wife just sat up and looked at me, then went back to sleep. Not a word from her...

I've felt plenty of the smaller ones. This one was the strongest and longest one that I've felt so far. They're pretty frequent. I just hope that our insurance rates don't go through the roof. In Kansas this week... Tornados, blizzard, baseball sized hail, sunshine and an earthquake. What a freakin' week.
