The dark mutterings of a former mild-mannered reporter for a large metropolitan daily newspaper, now living in obscurity in central Indiana.

Aftershock
The U.S. Geological Service reports a second quake - 4.1 on the Richter Scale - at 10:14 a.m. today a couple of miles from the epicenter of the pre-dawn jolt.
I thought I felt something about that time, but I dismissed it as being my imagination. Obviously, it was no big deal here.
Maybe it's a good thing to live on Crowley's Ridge when the faults slip.
Here's the website I use to keep tabs on seismic activity around here: http://folkworm.ceri.memphis.edu/recenteqs/
Oh, by the way, this is the 102nd anniversary of the 1906 earthquake that flattened San Francisco. Really. To the day.
