Not just earthquakes:

Icelandic volcanic ash alert grounds North European flights

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8621407.stm

Finnish airports will close tonight 2100 and they don't know when they open again.

Funniest thing is that nobody knows how long this ash eruption will last. Some professor said in the tv it may last weeks or months... :shrug:

7.2 quake hits South Pacific

WELLINGTON, New Zealand ? An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 7.2 rattled the South Pacific island nation of Vanuatu early Friday, triggering a tsunami watch for the area, officials said. There were no immediate reports of damage.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii issued a tsunami warning for Vanuatu, the Solomon Islands and New Caledonia. It said the quake had the potential to generate a destructive tsunami that could strike coastlines in the region within minutes to hours.

The warning center said it was not known if a tsunami was generated.

An earthquake measuring magnitude-7.5 was reported early Sunday in the Indian Ocean west of India's Nicobar Islands, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii issued a tsunami watch for the region, but later reduced the watch area to only India.:0corn

Well I don't blame ya for not coming to Canada.....we got earhquakes, tidal waves, Ebola, etc. Stay far away:D

Been to Rochester tons of times. When I was playing tennis my coach was in Syracuse so I lived there for a bit. In other words I spent lots of time from Buffalo to Syracuse.

Has been quite some time since I have been to NY though. Guess I should stay away, I hear the ground moves there:SIB

Scottie:

In the Book, we have very tight margins. Also in the Madelyn O'Hair version it was translated from the original kentuckian to english. They had a rough time spelling the words.
