Sitting here

I've been watching Mt. Etna. The image refreshes every 30 seconds. It's pretty cool watching, the smoke and everything.

As I modify this message, it's 6:30 am Mt. Etna time.

Thanks 2T, I see right now, Etna, is having an ash eruption.

[2nd Timothy]

So are we expecting this thing to errupt soon or what?

The probability of Mt. Etna erupting, in 2005 is 100.00%. Though Mt. Etna has already erupted this year. I watched as the eruption happened. Watching it was so cool.

Will have to keep an eye on that....would be cool to see it happen.

Give us a shout if you notice anything!

[Shammu]

Looks like something is happening.



And heres one from just a few minutes ago.

Yeah it does don't it?   I'm sure any locals have been warned, but is this thing close to a populous that we know of?

Here is an article I found that I think is quite interesting.

Interesting PR.   I read in the news the other day that there was a 4.1 quake somewhere in AR - the madrid fault.   Also had a very small 3.0 just North of Paris TX somewhere in OK.  Lots of seismic activity going on too it seems.

The madrid fault has had an incident at least once a year but usually more frequent. Not always in the same locale. It runs from all the way up here in Illinois and reaches almost to Mississippi. I have felt a number of very minor quakes this year.
