Dang it! Just too much shaking going on here in central VA. Just had a 3.2 stir things up. Yes, it's not major I know, but still unnerving.

A little plate tectonics to build up the mountains a bit for the tourists.

Anyone in your area breaking up rocks to extract natural gas?

Fortunately, no. Then you'd have to deal with groundwater problems I hear (we all have wells in our area).

We're about 15 miles from the epicenter of this one.

I agree, 3.2 is small. Rattled the pictures on the walls, that's about it. BUT, it is irritating. :-P
