Default VA earthquake

Just felt a few good movements here, got online and see it was due to a 5.8 in VA.

As yet the fault-line has been unnamed...

The best guess in DC is it'll be George Bush's Fault.

Screw the earthquake, you got much bigger problems, Irene is on her way! My guess it will hit as a Cat 4 or weak 5. Then again, once you reach Cat 4 it really doesnt matter much. Yer fooked either way.

He's got his hurricane generator machine cranking up again too.

From a reliable source, the 911 system in mecklenburg county went into overload today causing loss of service due to hundreds of people calling in to tell 911 that an earthquake occurred. Not a single one of them needed any help.
