Wait, so if they discovered the deep tremors in 2005 how were they monitoring them in 2000 and 2001? Did I read something wrong?

It's really quite simple.. It's a swarm of GRABOIDs!

I do not know what you are talking about.
I woke up at 8:17 this morning and must have slept right through that little trembler. Maybe I should think more seriously about moving to Arizona.

Wow, how often are there earthquakes out there? I remember a friend of mine from virginia saying they were on top of a really large fault line, but it just never produced earthquakes?

there are parts of California that have 100's of earthquakes a month, i know there is a city up here near me that is in the mountains that has 50-100 a month that range from 0-1.0's .. some can be barely felt

dont you know, the graboids will cause the chemical leak which will kill them off and as the chemical spreads the zombies will the begin to rise

It's not often but they do happen. Strangely enough though, I think that most of them actually happen at night so most people sleep through them since shaking is typically only in the 2-3 scale. I probably would've slept through the one this morning but I think it was just so close in proximity that the rumbling, freight-train-like sound woke me up (that and the dog barking). Then as I was falling back asleep, I started thinking about the Explorer - and how it could've slid/fell off off the stands - ruh roh .
