Well, I just felt my first earthquake. It was a rumble from a little way off first and then we started shaking, fortunately not enough to cause any damage, but I bet that it is the strongest ever for New Hampshire. The time was 7:13 PM Eastern time. Wife is reading on Facebook it was felt fairly widely. |

| They also had a very minor earthquake near Dallas last night. I believe the ones in Texas are caused by oil companies Fracking. When I was a kid I grew up withing 100 miles of New Madrid, MO. We experienced several 5.5 earthquakes there. |

| We had bigger after shock in 89 at the SF 7.1 quake. We were still shaking 3weks later when I came back to Oregon. I don't want to be in one like that again. Funny thing I was taking to a friend and neighbor the other day and he was in the same quake just a few miles over the hill from where I was. Walt |

| Scroll down a little & see the North American Craton pic. The east coast lies along an edge of the craton. There's movement all along the edges. |

| That happened yesterday around 9am in Fort Ann, NY. The pictures are amazing. They don't believe it had to do with any earthquakes or blasting from the local rock quarry. |

| What I read in our paper said they think the rain loosened the soil and caused that rock slide, lucky nobody was caught In it. |

| I am up in Maine, 10 minutes above Portsmouth, NH. Funny thing here is that the last few days we had been noticing things in the house falling over, settling. We all thought we had a ghost!Now we know it most likely was tremors and I see from the Fed quake map on the 10th there was another quake too in eastern Canada. Pete |
