Minor quake ripples through northeast Salt Lake City
March 7th, 2008 @ 7:50am

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- A minor earthquake trembled through Salt Lake City's east bench this morning.

The U.S. Geological Survey says the quake hit at 4:22 this morning and had a magnitude of 2.1. It was centered about 10 miles east-northeast of the city.

Police say they have received a few calls, but no damage has been reported.

The last earthquake that could be felt in the area occurred Feb. 21. Centered 11 miles southeast of Wells, Nev., the 6.0-magnitude quake shook places as far away as Twin Falls, Idaho, and Southern California.

I'm not sure that I'd notice an earthquake that small. Still, if it is an early warning sign of a bigger quake, Mirk could have an opportunity soon to test out his survival stuff.

What if it's a precursor to a 7.5?

Meh. It's a postcurser to the one last week from Wells.

(although I thought a postcurser was the guy who kept swearing at you, even after you've kicked his butt for him)

If it's below a 3.0, I don't really care.

I think it's amazing that President Hinckley started earthquake-proofing Temple Square, etc. He definitely was a true prophet.
