East Coast Quake (all quake threads merged)

Capital building in DC evacuated, shocks felt up and down the coast.
And all the scoundrels are out of DC for vacation! Drat!

Was this caused by the Dow bottoming out?
Breaking news.....

Quake, Irene, when do the locusts arrive?

Earthquake on the east coast.

Who else just felt that? I thought someone was walking on my roof I ran outside and then realized the earth was still shaking.

Easties ain't cut-out for quakes. Ninny's running out of buildings. I hear Eric Holder wet himself and was the first out.

That was a small one by west coast standards.

It needs a name. How about Bush's fault?

The house shook here in southern NJ but nothing even fell off the walls. We're fine but it was a strange feeling. Hope everyone closer to the center is okay.

I'll be looking for any information about the CIA and NSA data centers and if we have a national security crisis of some degree.
