    It was this one:

    http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/eqinthenews/2008/us2008rcar/

    We had just gone to bed when this one hit. Starting to get a little disturbed. This is the third that was strong enough for us to feel in Evansville. I know, I know...aftershocks, and all. But now they say it's 50/50 whether these are relieving the stress or going to set off something bigger.

    keep 'em under 5.5 please. :lol  I'm a tad nervous myself, but only because we're so horribly overdue our BIG 'quake anyway.

    USGS bumped it back to a 4.0

    USGS calls where these quakes have been coming from the Ozark Dome Region.

    Don't worry, they're paving the way for the Fault proper to go off REAL BIG.

    Yeah it was nice not having to think of the overdue big one but these last few have reminded us.
