I
typically ignore national news here, but the bankruptcy filing by
American Airlines today is also a local story with plenty of pay
and pension checks counted on here in Collinsville. I hope all works
out with minimal impact to those directy involved here and for the
area economy. -- Ted Wright 11/29/2011 -- sample

Saturday
Nov. 5th: Clearly everyone just felt another earthquake at ~10:53pm
for about a minute just as Channel 8 TV was airing
a report on the one earlier this morning (after the OSU football
game had ended). -- Ted 10:56pm Saturday 11/5/2011 (Early
report says this one more like 5.6 magnitude which would be largest
ever in Oklahoma? -- Ted 11:30pm Sat) -- KTUL
Channel 8 coverage 11/5/2011 -- USGS
Info on 5.6 quake at 10:53 Nov. 5th
-- I suspect each of us in Collinsville may
have felt or heard things a bit differently but for me (in an old
two story house on a brick foundation) it was more of a steady gentle
vibration and low dull rumbling sound. There was no real shaking
of anything on the wall or shelfs that I noticed. If your Collinsville
earthquake experience was significantly different let me know. Facebook
lit up immediately with reactions from this shared experience but
more shock (and some fear) for a mostly first time experience than
a quantifible event description. -- Ted Wright 1am Sunday
Reports
from many states that felt it. USGS
survey (click on "Responses" to see list
by zip code) says we were 134 kilometers (~83 miles) away
from epicenter. -- Ted noon Sunday -- Interesting
they felt it in Collinsville, Illinois also. |

I
felt this (4.7 earthquake) here in Collinsville about 2:15am Saturday
just minutes after I got in bed. -- Ted --> Tulsa
World 11/5/2011
(Based on Facebook reports lots of Collinsville
folks and others statewide felt it unless they slept thru it) |
