Default EARTHQUAKE

4.5 strong about 35 miles south of the plant. No damage to either plant and
it wasn't even strong enough to trigger response set-points. Loudest
longest quake I've ever been in. It was centered not far off the James
River. So far few reports of damage and none of injuries. Just before 4:00
it sounded like a large heavy truck was passing down the alleyway outside
the office wall. The shaking and noise got worse and several of us went
outside to look for the plume off of an explosion. The loudest part lasted
for nearly a minute.

I felt it for about a second, 15 miles north of Raleigh, NC.

He's Back!! And from all indications, healthy again!
Welcome back, Chief.

BTW, daughter no. 2 is bringing home a gyrene Lieutenant. Any particular
advice?

Stand tall. If the gyrene LT is female, then I have no advice.
