Not hot off the press but somewhat recent and curious.

Interesting combustion event towards the end.

Organize
bfesser,
Why don't you consolidate your multiple, highly similar posts on this thread? It would be more elegant, less sloppy, more coherent, and less run-on.

I've been posting them as replies, so this shows up when people search for active topics. I suppose I could condense down the old ones, though.
Thanks for the suggestion.

What concerns me are these "swarm" earthquakes. Unprecedented in modern history with both the huge frequency of occurrence, combined with location.

I don't see 2008 as ancient history. For that matter, I really don't see past 2K years or so as "Ancient History" , within the context of our
subject.
