If my Captain knows his stuff... Memphis, Tn. is on a fault line... Kentucky is not that far away!!!

My mom lives in Louisville and I havent heard anything about this. It would probably be a bit scary for those who have never experienced a quake before. :eek:

This is a site that gives you information about earthquakes around the world. You will see the Kentucky earthquakes listed.

I believe this is close to the New Madrid Fault - where the largest earthquake in the United States occurred.

Not sure if that is 100% correct..........but I think so.

I heard about it also although the headlines here were "Illinois residents shaken by Kentucky earthquake!" Almost as if they're blaming KY. :rolleyes: They said there were actually two of them, one in the morning that was a 2.7 and I don't remember what the other one was, but I'm sure it's nothing like those in CA. ;)

We went through Mammoth cave a few years back in KY and they were mentioning the fault lines and such that are in the area.
