Ay Girl, Make Yo Booty Clap Like Dat Earthquake We Had Last Night…

Catchy title right? lol

When you hear about an earthquake, what’s the first thought that pops into your head? California, right? West Coast, right? Far the hell away from me as possible, right? Well you’d like to think so. Most people aren’t aware of the fact that the Midwestern United States has been known to be a seismically active region. Granted, there aren’t as many earthquakes there as there are west of the Rocky Mountains, but there are still some.

This past week, I have been hearing about earthquakes that have struck my old home state of Illinois. When I heard about this, I immediately jumped up and started websurfing. As a person that has been studying earthquakes since the 6th grade, I was immediately excited but equally nervous. Lemme just start off by saying that I am NOT a seismologist nor do I work for the USGS (United States Geological Survey). I’m just an average dude that likes to read about earthquakes and plate tectonics.
