What The Heck Is Going On In Greenbrier Arkansas? Tiny Area Receives Concentrated Amount of Quakes
NewsFocus - 031811
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...
Southern coast of Alaska
Northern California (near Boggs Mtn State
Forest)
Central California (south of Hollister /
Pinnacles Natl Monument)
Mexicali (NW Mexico / SW U.S.)
Gulf of California
Greenbrier, Arkansas
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.
What all of this means is up to the
scientific community to ascertain. It could be an as yet undiscovered
natural anomaly, indicative of building tectonic stresses deep within the earth.
Lightning is known to have a ground to sky connection. Is it possible that this
is a force of nature, a harbinger of building tectonic forces, or could perhaps
Melvin 8865 be correct in his assumption?
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!
