Hey man thanks for the post.This made me think of a previous thread posted here about an interval of 188 days had occured between the Chilean,New Zealand,and Fukushima quake.Here's a pic,nevermind the Elenin hype,we'll leave that to others.But wow I must say it looks like the 37th is definitely been rumbling lately.Also here is the link to the thread started by SonOfTheLawOfOne

Sigh, it's California, huge seismic zone, I don't really see the point of making a thread about a 4 mag earthquake. We have a huge number of small eq's every year.

There was a poster just the other day that started a thread for a 4.3 in Santa Cruz, told him/her the same thing...I don't get all worked up unless it's 5.0 and above.

Look at the seismic history map on the USGS for California and it will show you the reality of quakes in California, just so you get an idea of what we deal with here.

If you want to OP, you can join the Quake Watch 2011 thread sticky in the Fragile Earth forum. It's like 240 pages so I would just skip to the end and see all the people who are reporting the same thing.

Placenta,,ca.,,,really,,,

It's actually Placentia with an "I" in the last sylable. Guys we do get a lot of small earthquakes here in Cali everyday, in fact hundreds. Funny though with the Placenta=Birth Pangs

4.3?? Big deal!

Why do we need a post on Above TOP SECRET about this? It's neither secret nor very big news. We have thousands of earthquakes every day in California, dozens in the 3.0-4.0 range. So what?

It's like making a post about the sun rising or the waves crashing on shore. *yawn*

It's simple late tectonics. Easily explained. Thoroughly documented. Well researched. Quite boring actually.

But if earthquakes all completely STOPPED for a while?? Now THAT would be something to write about! ""

you know how they have the bronze, silver and gold level contributors?

i think you should get the fox news level badge for over-sensationalizing everything. seriously. i mean....i'm a firm believer that a big change is just around the bend. i know it in my bones. i know that disasters are gonna happen...countless will die...and bad things are near. but i hate when every little thing gets blown outta proportion!

ats has been filled with repetitive, attention seeking, over freaking out, fearful threads here lately about snails farting in chile so now the world's gonna end.

part of me thinks that TPTB are just trying to fill the boards up with garbage so people will stop checking the site. i used to just skip over these threads. i'm gonna start commenting from now on.

MODS::: CAN WE GET SOME KINDA NEGATIVE SCORING SYSTEM? so that when the same person becomes recognized for posting bs/blown outta proportion all the time...people can like tarnish their reputation?

Here's the video of the seismo event - in real time

abclocal.go.com...

Not a big deal at all for L.A. When I lived there for 3 years I felt two 4.x magnitude earthquakes that had their epicenters right in/around the Greater LA area. This is nothing.

I also felt a 7.x that was more than 200 miles away in Joshuah Tree National Park...now THAT was a big deal.

We used to have a 'negative poster'-type scoring system here at ATS years ago. The Three Amigos did away with it for some reason (somehting about it turning into a pissing contest or some such).

Anyway - I agree with you. It's time to bring some type of scoring system back to help us identify repeat trolls, doomsayers, point hogs, and related non-contributor time-wasters.

Send SO, Springer, or a super mod for this forum your idea. You never know - if you bend somone's ear enough they may just start to listen...

Goos luck

Why are you taking such a hate to it? It used to severely bug me when people over-hyped things on here, now, I just don't read the topic. What's the point? You can't stop them from posting, and at the end of the day it's the person whinging constantly about 'this shouldn't even be a topic' that looks like the mega d-bag (i'm not saying that's you now, I just mean in general). Just take a deep breath, and only stick with the topics that don't sent the blood pressure skyrocketing! ;p.

I'll also edit to add - I can sympathise with you though - I have to bite my keyboard tongue DAILY on here with the amount of minor EQ's being posted. All up though, it means more people are taking an interest, and in the long run, that's got to be a good thing!

This is pretty much what I was going write, including the "Yawn." You just beat me to it.
When we go a lengthy period of time without any earthquakes then I'll start worrying about "the big one"

This member is always freaking out about tiny quakes. Seriously, this means nothing........ tiny quakes happen all the time in cali. If you are so interested in quakes, pursue a seismology degree?

Last thing this forum needs is more fear mongering dis info.
