April 12, 2008 Elaine Meinel Supkis I have been too busy to post
earth news lately but Mother Nature is now possibly going to
have yet another underwater violent event that can trigger many
other violent events. One of the greater dangers on this planet
besides the entire coast of all of Indonesia and much of Japan
is the entire West Coast of the USA. I have been watching a
series of fairly big jolts happen at the very, very dangerous
level of 10 kilometers under the earth, along the southern coast
of Oregon. This is the infamous 'Triple Juncture' where three
huge plates converge and these create not only earthquakes but
huge tsunamis and spectacular volcanic eruptions. Tonight, the
jolts are migrating south towards the San Andreas Fault. Also,
many micro earthquakes are happening in this juncture. Time to
discuss the geology of the most dangerous parts of the USA.
Scientists listening to underwater microphones have detected an
unusual swarm of earthquakes off central Oregon, something that
often happens befo
