[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 1651137, member: 5151"] The kickoffs are also significantly shallower than the quakes. Also, the density of fracked wells is higher in my area (as far as I know), which is also more earthquake prone according to USGS. You would likely see significant changes in production (positive or negative) by the wells in the area if the quakes were related to fracking. People say "zomg new faults have been recently discovered" as if it means they didn't already exist and that they are man-made. The Meers fault has been relatively quiet the last few decades. If you follow the reports of people feeling the quake, you'll notice that they trend along a line from Meers to New Madrid. It's more likely that you'll feel a quake along a fault system than away from the fault system. [/QUOTE]
