#1 I've contacted some friends who live just South of Seattle, and they've neither seen nor heard any advisories.

Wouldn't want any Rantburgers to be rockin' and rollin' unexpectedly.

#2 Guam's K57 Radio was the only local Media to publicly announce our recent 2.0'er - for days before, there were minutae, barely feelable tremors-shakes, oft several times a day, culmin in the 2.0. Hopefully, we're done for awhile.

#3 This is just great! With 3 major TV networks in Seattle, I have to read Rantburg to find out that Vancouver Island, about 10 miles from me, as the crow flies (sitting on the western side of Whidbey Island, looking at the glow of Victorias's lights right now), is gonna do some shaking, and we in the US will feel nothing.
If anything happens, I'll let you know. Mrs. Ret, works at NASWI hospital, and if something does happen, she will probably be hip deep in casualties. Could get interesting.

#4 I am a Masshole.

My parents live on Vancouver Island, and they are quite tuned in to this.

The Boston Globe and local NPahhh affiliates are silent.

Rantburg, however ....
