I can hardly believe this:

Maybe global warming is having an effect

Nah. They occur about every five years. It made the headlines because it affected the South-East. It's the same when Kent gets a couple of inches of snow. That's a major disaster. Ten foot drifts in the north are just interesting

Japan and california have the same kind of shaking on a daily basis .

Yeah, I was seeing 4.3 and thinking "big deal"... I'm sure the neighbours of the Ministry Of Sound get more vibrations than that.

LOL. My sentiments exactly.

We haven't had a 4.3 level quake in a while here (cali). We've outsourced all out quakes to Japan and the pacific islands.

Indeed - 2mm of snow in Kent and the country grinds to a halt, apparently...

Then when we get more than a fortnight of sun we declare a drought.

p.s, I was born in Kent and lived there for 30 yrs. We try to make everything sound bad to try and stop everyone moving here.

Comtrad · 04-30-2007, 02:32 PM

There are earthquakes daily, everywhere. You just usually don't feel them.

*** @ the global warming thought?
