Concentrated Greenbrier, Arkansas Activity |

What The Heck Is Going On In Greenbrier Arkansas? NewsFocus has been tracking world earthquake data since early last week, long before the Honshu, Japan 9.1 quake. Using computer software with near real-time data from USGS, it has been possible to track and trend the earthquake data, while denoting location, depth and strength. The frequency of quakes within specific regions has been most notable and appears as indicator of tectonic hot spots. Some of the most alarming hot spots to watch for the U.S. are...
Honshu, Japan is obviously the hottest spot in the world by far, hands down. With that infamous distinction in mind, the next hottest area under threat has to be the southern coast of Alaska, which is off the charts with the most activity, next to Japan. It is arguably one of the most volatile areas right now and has to seriously be considered as a candidate for a large earthquake. The Gulf of California has had the most significant quakes with the highest magnitudes in a concentrated area, and could play a major role in triggering quakes for northwest Mexico and southwest U.S. There is one extremely curious area of note though that holds a unique distinction, Greenbrier, Arkansas, just 43 miles north of Little Rock. This tiny town of roughly 4,500 people has had more concentrated earthquakes within a small, extremely focused area than anyone else since the Japan 9.1 quake. Greenbrier has had 57 minor quakes within a triangular area no wider than 2.5 miles on the south end and barely 1/2 a mile on the north end. In all, the small tract of land measures roughly 7.5 miles long. The quake activity started on Friday, March 11th at 2:18pm with a 2.6 magnitude just four miles below the surface. The largest quake to date has only been a 3.0, which struck on Thursday the 17th, but the fact that this small area has had such a focused array of tectonic jolts is intriguing indeed. What becomes more intriguing is when you compare the map of this recent quake activity with a popular YouTube video making the rounds on the internet. Some have speculated about nefarious activity in the region, and this particular video was attempting to corroborate those suspicions. I had run across the video recently, but didn't have anything to make of it, until now. In tracking the outrageous amount of U.S. earthquake activity since the Japan quakes, I was making an earnest attempt to possibly spot the most likely spot where a major quake might start. I was scanning the data for trends when I came across the Greenbrier site. What I saw made me take a breath and sit back in near shock. I had remembered the YouTube video that I ran across a week earlier. I immediately did a frantic search and pulled the video back up to compare the data. My jaw literally dropped open. It was a perfect match. As a matter of fact, you couldn't get any more precise. An absolutely uncanny perfect match.
In light of the claims being made by the
poster, this gave me a pretty eerie feeling for quite some time. It still does.
It's hard to discount the absolute perfect match of the two maps. It means something. What that is, this author cannot say with any sure certainty, but it is undeniably something that definitely needs some further scientific scrutiny. In the interim, it would probably be a good idea for all those reading this to download this video from YouTube for further research, just in case it should end up getting pulled down. You can do this many ways, but one that is the easiest is the site KeepVid. You might also save this specific webpage as well, just in case this site has unexpected server issues. Go to "File"...then "Save As" to save a copy for yourself. There is also a zip file here that contains all of this info as well. One thing the internet certainly loves is a good mystery. Well here's a good one for you folks. Have at it!
