Well, I have felt at least one of the temblors shown here. It's a little disconcerting, because I have an active imagination and I'm imagining a new volcano rising out of the ground there. I hasten to add that historically Nevada has an active earthquake history, and seismologists just think we're heading back into a more active phase, which historically is more normal.
Anyway, to keep it fun, taking bets on what, if any, the eventual cause is discovered to be:
1. Volcano two miles from my house.
2. Giant earthworms digging up from the depths to feast.
3. Robots that nearly wiped out mankind 40,000 years ago are resurfacing to once again wreak havoc.
4. Hell's bowling alley has just started league season (Reno is the bowling capital of the U.S.)
5. Normal small quake activity, nothing to be concerned about. (if you do not enjoy imagineering)
6. Mole men and giant drilling machines.
7. Loose micro-black hole in the Earth's interior.
8. Ancient Sumerian name for Earth is "Krypton"
9. A particularly active trampoline league in Mogul.
10. Glitches in the Matrix.
Perhaps a great, evil monster is getting ready to explode his way to the surface and consume the souls of the unwary. That should give you some comfort.
ReplyDeletei like to think of them as foreshocks of the sun's imminent nova-going.
