Here's a new item from one of our regular contributors. It's not just Cleburne, there's a whole lot of shaking going on...

Here's something new. Kind of a Jules Vernian true story that connects fracking and earthquakes, this time with clean energy drilling. There's even some conflict of interest and corporate shenanigans involved and new fears that California could fall into the sea.

A couple of key comments near the end:

"But the obscure nature of earthquakes always gives companies an out."

"If they were creating tornadoes they would be shut down immediately. But because...you can't see it...they keep doing it."
