Pretty obvious increase in tornados since 1950. This is off the subject, but never-the-less, another sign of our times.
Oh, and here's a graph for the increases in Germany. Sleep tight tonight.

Stacks of Facts
*According to the U.S. Geological Survey, more than 500 measurable earthquakes have been recorded in central Arkansas just since September.
*A magnitude-3.8 earthquake that shook north-central Indiana on December 30th is being called "unprecedented". It was strong enough to actually cause cracks along the ground and it was felt in portions of Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin and Kentucky.
*More than 3,000 red-wing blackbirds fell out of the sky dead in the Arkansas town of Beebe on New Year's Eve.
*Large numbers of dead birds were also found in Kentucky right around Christmas.
*Approximately 500 dead blackbirds and starlings were also recently discovered in Pointe Coupee Parish, Louisiana.
*Approximately 100,000 fish washed up dead on the shores of the Arkansas River just last week.
So could all of these things have some other very simple explanation?
Possibly.
But the fact that they all happened in or around the New Madrid fault zone is starting to raise some eyebrows.
According to a recent study by the University of Illinois, a 7.7-magnitude earthquake along the New Madrid fault would leave 3,500 people dead, more than 80,000 injured and more than 7 million homeless.
So what would happen if an 8.0 earthquake struck?
Or an 8.5?
Or a 9.0?
Remember, an 8.7-magnitude earthquake would be ten times worse than a 7.7-magnitude earthquake.
Jeremy Heidt of the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency says that life in the region would be instantly transformed in the event of a major earthquake along the New Madrid fault....

"All communications would be out. All air travel would be out as the FAA air control would go down. All rail travel would fail. Ports would shut down; oil and natural gas pipelines could be off line."Read the full article HERE

The Math
24 hours / day
8 hours / work day or 1/3 of the day
That's a 33% chance of a quake during your work day. I can't live with those odds simple because of irony. As irony would have it, the quake would come in the middle of work day. So, always keep a "go" bag packed away in your car.

Bird Deaths Related To The Fault Line?
Birds, magnetic field, earthquake activity, is it all related? Is it a sign in the heavans for what is coming below? Bird and animal deaths have been found all up and down the fault line. So, it looks like a possibility.

Jackson To Be Staging Area for Memphis Evacuees
Jackson has been designated, by both state and federal agencies, as the primary staging area to help rescue and restore Memphis and provide sanctuary for its people, assuming we are not significantly damaged.
Already designated as emergency shelters are: Oman Arena, Carl Perkins Civic Center, West Jackson Baptist Church, East Union Baptist Church, Malesus Community Center, Jackson Fairgrounds Park and every public school building.
Depending on the weather, tent cities could be established at Pringles Park and other athletic fields that are surrounded by fences, which would limit access and improve security.
Even then, Clements knows Jackson can't handle 10,000 evacuees for an extended period.
