What is fascinating are the very minor quakes after teh major ones on mainland Australia...not that 1.0 quakes can be called as such... but I have observed that after a major quake on the Pacific Rim 6.0 or higher, triggers little fluctuations on the Australian mainland.
Interesting.but nothing to get alarmed about.
Curious... what dB level of sounds do earthquakes make, if any?
I live in Louisville, Kentucky. There was a 5.1 magnitude earthquake in Illinois in 2004 that was felt here. The first jolt woke me up, then I heard a roaring sound that I at first thought was the wind and thought a storm was coming. But it was the sound of the ground shaking as the seismic wave travelled through the city. The roof of my house started squeaking and then the whole house shook for about 30 seconds. I don't know what decibal level it reached, but I can imagine a great quake could be very loud.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
