Just read about this on FB. Brad Travis was asking if anyone heard a loud boom & shakes in the Shoals. It was heard as far as Huntsville & Decatur. Some of the comments is that a steam line blew on Hwy. 20. Someone  said a steam line blew at Ascend, someone else said it didn't.

Was also said the loud booms & shaking was likely caused by "frost quakes".

 

Did any of you hear/feel anything, & know what it was?

I didn't hear or feel anything, but my dog suddenly jumped up and started barking like she does when someone knocks on the door. No one was there when I checked and then she started whining and running up and down the hall. She is fine now, but I couldn't figure out what her problem was. This was about 45 or an hour ago.

it was more than likely a 'frost quake'. there have been several around the shoals the last few days.

trying to get attention and impress me.

Wait, you're trying to find an earthquake from back around 1993-1995, on a web page that only shows the last 30 days?  This cold weather bust be slowing you down a bit.

I seem to remember it was a 3.0 earthquake.  That was when I found out that this area is actually part of the New Madrid fault system.

Once again your poor attempt at humor fails miserably.

If you are just now figuring that out you haven't been paying attention. He's always been a liar. An honest person wouldn't need to go through 30 id's so far(all banned) and even pretend to be a woman on several occasions in a pink tube top. The reason for his woman avatar right now is he thinks he will be less conspicuous to the mods on here when he shoots off with that nasty potty mouth and gets reported again. Also an honest, healthy minded person wouldn't need to constantly troll a newspaper forum and try to impress people with his incoherent ramblings about how important he is. 

 

Put him on block and be done with it. I did about 6 months ago. It's so nice to not have to read his backwards, ignorance anymore. He's just obviously a lonely old man who is bored in life and likes to try and get a rise out of people on the internet to pass the time away. He also appears to have several severe mental defects. I'd feel sorry for the old white haired coot if he weren't so irritating and stupid.

There also are those of us who understand the difference between "piece" and "peace," but you are apparently not among that number.

However contendah, the infinite number of possibilities allows that that is the correct spelling and at that state your choice is wrong. I was simply choosing to allow that to be the present case.  I often do that as an exercise in quantum mechanics. Proof of that would be to set every word equal to “1”. Therefore piece=1 and 1=piece, then all utterances would be “1” a non -utterances would be the absence of “1” therefore a statement of 110110 by someone would be a “piece” of mind.

  I like the sound of "however contendah" it seems to suit you. I therefore set it to 1101.

QuailDung is still trying to get past step...2...

Hahaha!

The only "cavernous stratum" YOU are familiar with...is the one...BETWEEN YOUR EARS!

Bahahahahaaaaaaaaa!!!!

None of that obtuse analysis will stand up when examined in light of the coefficient of retrograde phase specificity in Cholmondoley's grillage coefficient.
