    What if they're wrong though and what we perceive as aftershocks are just preshocks of a future-quake?! #quakes

    I am going to extrapolate this further and claim that there was only one earthquake ever, and all others are aftershocks of it. #quakes

    @Ruthless, If you let me: Seems perfectly reasonable. Though I'd go a step further and just say that all earthquakes are just aftershocks of the big bang. #quakes

    @aubreyf: Your extreme (and also reasonable) extrapolation has earned a heart-click. #quakes

    The only earthquake I've ever been in was a New Madrid quake. I was in Milwaukee. #quakes

    For anyone interested, here's an awesome earthquake monitoring site for quakes in California and Nevada:

    [quake.wr.usgs.gov]

    It's updated every hour or within 5 minutes of a relatively large quake. #quakes

    "Does this mean that the 1906 earthquake could still destroy San Francisco?"

    Yes, and I'm pretty sure that this is part of the plot of Roland Emmerich's next movie.

    Any reason why the front page is left aligned, but the articles are centered?
    Or is it just me?
