We've had two noticable quakes in Michigan since 1985. Yeah, Michigan, where they store nuclear and other hazardous waste in the underground salt beds because it's so stable.

The worst damage we sustained was during the second one; it woke up the baby.

[rant] Well, the easy solution to that is stop producing nuclear and hazardous waste! However, people are not at all ready to see the connection between themselves using electricity, or things produced using electricity, and the fact that said electricity has to come from somewhere. And that the products they use are produced by methods which create hazardous waste. And said wastes have to be disposed of somewhere. But everyone says "Nuclear waste? Hazardous waste? Not In My BackYard!", and goes home to put another load of laundry on, fire up the computer, and turn on the A/C. Sick.[/rant]
