that's the first red alert I've seen since Bush was elected! Not to change the subect from media hype over a tsunami, but has anyone noticed that the terror threat codes were raised like every other week and holidays before Bush was elected...and we've been at yellow ever since....and like 5 holdays have passed?Skibumtress wrote:http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/recenteqs/
