I'm just joining the discussion today.

The Mardi Gras connection to the quake was on my mind to. News reports were saying that the mayor of Seattle quipped "enought already!" This was after the violence and the quake in such short succession.

Imagine what will be said when the earth groans even more before the Lord's coming.

The media is reporting 2 scenarios that could be nightmarish for those who live in the Pacific Northwest. 1)There's a plate just offshore that could be pressed downward causing a tsunami that will flood Puget Sound--and then 2)there's Mount Rainier...(Lots of snow has been melting since the early '90s)

People say that it's "lucky" that the quake was on a deep plate, but like dominoes, (or pastors shifting districts throughout a conference) that could that could affect the geological integrity of the entire region.

That's right Pastor Andrew(and the joke was hilarious by the way),

Mount Rainier is going to go in a big way if there is a shallow earthquake. They expect the entire Puyallup valley to flood with lava. It would be disastrous! It is also not a matter of if, but of when.

The time is at hand! Praise the Lord!

I have a brotjher that lives in Lacey.
He drives a truck and is out here in the east somewhere at the moment.
His wife stays with a sister in Olympia, any word about that area?
I don't have a phone number to reach to check and I don't know the addy either.

Gerry,

That is very close to the epicenter and Lacey/Tumwater area was hit very hard. Olympia and Seattle were hit the hardest, with the Capital building and the governor's mansion splitting in two in places. If you will email me your relative's/friend's names, I can look up the phone numbers and addresses for you. Only one person died from a heart attack, but over 270 were reported with quake related injuries. Let me know.

Also, I feel just a little spooked at having started this topic related to all the other earthquakes in the world, and then having it hit here. Too weird.

There probably was a reason to put the EGW quote in red.
