[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 2759599, member: 7157"] Up to a point. If this trend continues, the accumulated effect of all these smaller quakes will cause more damage - over time - than a big quake. It's the lower profile of each small quake that doesn't have anyone in power up in arms about the increase in frequency. As long as the quakes remain small, the O&G industry and the politicians that pander to them will continue to try and dissemble and discourage the direct linking of the quakes to the O&G injection activity. If there's a big one in the near future - and some seismologists are predicting one in the 6+ range - then these parties will see a surge of opposition. [/QUOTE]
