Keep in mind, Bill, you West Coast guys have more experience with this crap...
I'm pretty sure this is what woke me up this morning. I couldn't figure out why I was suddenly wide awake and uneasy. I knew I wasn't having a nightmare or anything...
Anyway, I think the fault lines under West Salem, IL, are branches of the New Madrid. Let'* all really, REALLY hope that it doesn't knock THAT fault loose...last time the New Madrid went off, the Mississippi ran backwards and Kentucky got a new lake.![Shocked](https://www.gmforum.com/gm/images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)
EDIT, the temblor was on the Wabash Valley fault area, separated from the New Madrid by about 50 miles.

Woke me up. The closet doors were rattling like crazy. I didn't notice the aftershock, but thinking back on it, I think it showed up in some of my lab data. I wondered how that spike could have possibly gotten there. Don't take readings during an earthquake.
