Is The New Madrid Fault Earthquake Zone Coming To Life?

What in the world is happening in the middle of the United States right now?  Thousands of birds are falling dead from the skies, tens of thousands of fish are washing up on shore dead, earthquakes are popping up in weird and unexpected places and people are starting to get really freaked out about all of this.  Well, one theory is that the New Madrid fault zone is coming to life.  The New Madrid fault zone is six times bigger than the San Andreas fault zone in California and it covers portions of Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee and Mississippi.  The biggest earthquakes in the history of the United States were caused by the New Madrid fault.  Now there are fears that the New Madrid fault zone could be coming to life again, and if a "killer earthquake" does strike it could change all of our lives forever.

So exactly what events have happened recently that are causing people to take a close look at the New Madrid fault zone?  Well, just consider the following examples of things that have been popping up in the news lately....

*According to the U.S. Geological Survey, more than 500 measurable earthquakes have been recorded in central Arkansas just since September.

*A magnitude-3.8 earthquake that shook north-central Indiana on December 30th is being called "unprecedented". It was strong enough to actually cause cracks along the ground and it was felt in portions of Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin and Kentucky.

*More than 3,000 red-wing blackbirds fell out of the sky dead in the Arkansas town of Beebe on New Year's Eve.

*Large numbers of dead birds were also found in Kentucky right around Christmas.

*Approximately 500 dead blackbirds and starlings were also recently discovered in Pointe Coupee Parish, Louisiana.

*Approximately 100,000 fish washed up dead on the shores of the Arkansas River just last week.

So could all of these things have some other very simple explanation?

Possibly.

But the fact that they all happened in or around the New Madrid fault zone is starting to raise some eyebrows.

About 200 years ago, in 1811 and 1812, there were four earthquakes that were so powerful in the area of the New Madrid fault zone that they are still talked about today.  All four of the quakes were estimated to have been magnitude-7.0 or greater.  It is said that those earthquakes opened deep fissures in the ground, caused the Mississippi River to run backwards and that they were felt as far away as Boston.

The last major earthquake to hit the region was a 5.4-magnitude quake that struck the town of Dale, Illinois in 1968.  Things have been strangely quiet in the region since then until recently.

If a true "killer earthquake" struck along the New Madrid fault zone today, cities such as St. Louis, Missouri and Memphis, Tennessee could potentially be completely destroyed.

Unfortunately, this is not an exaggeration.

The following video describes just how incredibly powerful the earthquakes along the New Madrid fault in 1811 and 1812 actually were....

So could such a thing happen today?

Well, that is exactly what many seismologists now fear.  The following video news report from ABC News explains why so many scientists are so concerned about the New Madrid fault zone....

One interesting theory is that the "oil volcano" unleashed by the BP oil spill in 2010 may have sparked renewed seismic activity in that part of the world.

Jack M. Reed, a retired Texaco geologist-geophysicist, has been carefully studying the geology of the Gulf of Mexico for over 40 years.  Reed is convinced that the Gulf of Mexico is currently tectonically active, and that the Gulf of Mexico is the source for most seismic activity along the New Madrid fault.

According to Reed, there is substantial evidence that the New Madrid fault zone is directly connected to "deeply buried tectonics" in the Gulf of Mexico....

"This entire zone through the United States is suffering some type of tectonic activity that I believe is tied to the deeply buried tectonics in the Gulf of Mexico."

So did BP disturb those "deeply buried tectonics" by drilling such a deep well and unleashing all that oil that flowed into the Gulf of Mexico?

Let's hope not.

If a truly historic earthquake did strike along the New Madrid fault the amount of damage that could be done to surrounding states such as Illinois, Kentucky, Mississippi, Indiana, Alabama, Missouri, Arkansas and Tennessee could potentially be unimaginable.

Jeremy Heidt of the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency says that life in the region would be instantly transformed in the event of a major earthquake along the New Madrid fault....

"All communications would be out. All air travel would be out as the FAA air control would go down. All rail travel would fail. Ports would shut down; oil and natural gas pipelines could be off line."

According to a recent study by the University of Illinois, a 7.7-magnitude earthquake along the New Madrid fault would leave 3,500 people dead, more than 80,000 injured and more than 7 million homeless.

So what would happen if an 8.0 earthquake struck?

Or an 8.5?

Or a 9.0?

Remember, an 8.7-magnitude earthquake would be ten times worse than a 7.7-magnitude earthquake.

There are even some who believe that if a powerful enough earthquake hit the New Madrid fault someday it could potentially alter the surrounding geography enough that it could actually create a new major body of water in the middle of the United States.

So, no, it is not just California that needs to worry about "the Big One".

Right now seismic activity has been dramatically increasing all over the globe.  Just think of the unprecedented number of volcanic eruptions that we have seen over the past year.  Major earthquakes have been popping up all along the "Ring of Fire".  Just over the past couple of days a magnitude-7.1 earthquake hit central Chile and a magnitude-7.0 earthquake struck northern Argentina.

So to think that "it can't happen" in the United States is just being totally naive.

Let us hope and pray that a devastating earthquake does not hit the New Madrid fault any time soon, because such an event could completely wipe out our economy.  The U.S. economy is already teetering on the brink of disaster, and all it would take is one major blow to bring the entire house of cards crashing down.

Just remember what happened in Haiti.  A magnitude-7.0 earthquake killed 230,000 people and caused such horrific devastation that it is still hard to even try to put it into words.  Let us hope and pray that nothing like that happens in any U.S. city any time soon.

    This is a very interesting topic. There’s a fault they discovered underneath NYC. I think it was midly active in the 1990s. NC and MD have both had small quakes in recent years. MD had one in mid-2010, if I remember correctly.
    Who knows?

  • serena

    Gary – the rich work hard for their money, and the they know how to make it work for them. The money they save in taxes they invest to make more money – often this increases jobs.
    stealing from the rich to give to those who don’t want to work as hard is one of the cornerstones of socialism. Both parties are pushing this agenda. The divide between Republicans and Democrats is an illusion – the same agenda is moving inexorably forward.

  • jo

    Interesting news for sure, but as scientists will admit, they simply don’t know enough about earthquakes yet to make accurate forecasts. My understanding is that they only know minutes before they occur. Strange happenings for sure but how do these stack up to the past? I understand that birds falling in mass from the sky is rare but not unheard of…same with mass amounts of dead fish. I remember living in Tokyo and the constant talk about ‘due for a big one’ that would destroy the city. that was over 30 years ago and Japan continues to experience daily earthquakes. The ‘big one’ could strike tomorrow or 250 years from now.

    As for Gary….apology accepted. I am a liberal democrat, and I found your rant offensive. I will agree that there a few…a minority in fact of rabid conservatives out there, as there are rabid liberals…both need to step out of the way and quit blocking progress. But it is comments like yours that make people defensive and causes continued division. And God forbid we EVER have a one party system!

  • Mike

    Wow, Gary…

    Yeah, that’s a really liberal and forward way of thinking. I think it was the Nazis who said the exact same thing about Jews.

  • Walt

    I have been reading all these comments from conservatives attacking this Gary dude for his lowbrow comment. It might have been a distasteful joke but I couldn’t help the hypocrisy coming out of these people. I mean do you guys every look in the mirror at yourselves?

    I mean, for anybody who is paying attention (and that means not watching FOX News or listening to Limbaugh, Savage, Beck, and all the other right wing charlatans)this unfettered­, unregulate­d, laissez faire Capitalism that you GOP/Tea Party/John Birch Society/Ay­n Rand disciples blindly worship… is slowly destroying the planet and humanity. For what? So that 1% can own 40% of the wealth in the world?

    These conservatives comments were, at best, typically hypocritical and naively stereotypical. Gary might have said something he shouldn’t have. But I fully understand his anger. Until you conservatives pull your heads out and see what the conservative movement in this country as become, you will just be part of the problem.

  • archivesDave

    Poor Gary,
    U still don’t have a clue….Mo is correct!
    Do yourself a HUGE favor and start doing some gumshoeing on youtube….Start with Maj Gen Smedley Butler.

  • Tamara L. Waters

    There was a 5.1 earthquake in April, 2008, followed by a few smaller aftershocks–it was actually centered toward the northern edge of the seismic zone, in the Wabash Valley Fault which is the northern part of the New Madrid Fault.

  • ray

    As soon as I started reading this I thought, BP.
    I never even went to college and I was concerned about the oil spill creating something like this… Do you remember the reports of moments before the BP incident about the workers on the platform telling some big hotshot, that we need to shut this down and the company office dude yelling back NO! KEEP IT GOING!!! I wonder how much he got paid… Be prepared for Marshall Law,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

  • Tamara L. Waters

    I live in southern Illinois on the fault and it hasn’t been reported in the media but there were dead blackbirds in my area also within the last few days and even one incident in early December.

  • William

    Just to clarify a few minor details, first would be that the New Madrid fault is not your tipical slip fault like the San Andreas, it falls into the catagory of
    Oblique-slip fault but even that is a little off the mark. The New Madrid will behave more like a rip zone where the earth parts as oppose to buttresses against itself. What this means is that the two halves of the fault are moving in different directions. The western portion would be tugged north since thats the direction the plate is moving and the eastern portion would shift north east once again because of tectonic movement. I honestly have no clue if the actual break will ever come to pass but if it does, picture the US torn from the Gulf of Mexico up through to the great lakes. And yes it does hold the potential to split the tectonic plate that the US sits on. Bad bad mojo for anyone within a few hundred miles at least.

  • Walt

    Hey, maybe that billionaire right wing Christian (in name only) Evangelical, Pat Robertson will come out at and announce this is a sign from God that 35 years since, the Reagan revolution, of unfettered, unregulated, laissez faire Capitalism is destroying the planet and humanity… And the GOP/Tea Party/John Birch Society/Ayn Rand disciples will all of a sudden… get a conscience. Yeahhh, that is about as far from reality as you can get.

    Hey, it’s just a joke… or is it? There was a time before the Reagan revolution when there was a government for the people… instead of multinational corporations and the banksters. Hey conservatives did you hear about the conservative wing of the supreme Court giving unlimited power to multinational corporations to buy elections without revealing who they are? And did you hear about all the good bills that came out of the House that would have reigned in a lot of this Fascist abuse only to see them filibustered to death by the Republicans you support in the Senate? 1% own 40% of the wealth in this world. Why do you feel tax cuts for the rich will solve all our problems?

    It has been brainwashed in your consciences for so long that government is the problem that you have a track record of electing politicians who create this reality. Now we all reap what you have sowed. But that is ok. Rush Limbaugh will set you straight.

    I know you won’t publish this because you can’t handle the truth. Reagan opened up “Pandora’s Box” and 35 years later here we are. You are so damn frightened of the word “socialism” that you let right in corporate fascism which is doing all the damage you feared. Reagan moved this country from center to too far right and now he is considered the center of reason. There is only one party. Clinton and, more and more it looks like, Obama is the left arm of the Republican party. And liberal/progressives are left with very little representation.

    Your website, “end of the american dream” is right but your moral reasoning is wrong. We didn’t have to go down this road. But you voted to because you listened to the lies and the fears. It is a joke to read these sanctimonious hypocritical comments by these so call good conservatives.

  • Sandra

    Wel this funny… al this left en right political discussions. Doesn’t anyone see that it doesn’t make any difference? They give you two choices but both are bad anyways. Gary is a moron for believing that it makes a difference at all. The US is run by big corporations. When do you americans stand up to al the bull-shit from the FDA deciding what kinda fod you need to eat.
    Worry about that!

    As for the earthquake.. i sincerely hope nothing like that will happen. It sure would be devastating. Stay safe you all en keep watching en helping the neighbour as well!

  • bruce beasley

    What does the New Madrid fault have to do with dead birds and politics?

  • DM

    NOW NOW everyone don’t call sweet Gary names… Don’t you know he is a liberal and they (according to them) are not mean spirited… only the conservatives are!
    HA! what a dumb SOB…. Gary… your a real piece of “S”! Typical, mean, hateful, gross, dispicable, liberal and I can’t even call you a human being!
    I hope wherever it hits your right in the middle of it!
    SO LONG!

  • Stray Cat

    Gary, your apology doesn’t mean s*** to me, you long haired, maggot infested, dope smoking FM type.

    I agree, you should be banned from the comments section.

  • KT_Jane

    Yeah, I heard also that the movement of plates cause the earth to release methane into the atmosphere, therefore asphyxiation would occur if birds flew through a cloud of this toxic gas. I think people need to wake up more, the earths plates are repositioning themselves at extraordinary speeds right now. The major floods in Australia and Indonesia are not caused by excessive rainfall, the flood waters are not retreating. Could it be possible that these countries are just sinking? Earthquakes do appear to be increasing (google trends), and more areas that are not used to them are seeing more. Just in the UK, within the past two weeks we have had 2 earthquakes measuring around 3.5 on the richter. According to records the average is just one per year, at this magnitude. Keep an eye on these movements. But remember it’s nothing the earth hasn’t experienced before.

  • Gary, for all of those wanting to spread the wealth around I have the following questions:
    1. Who worked to earn this wealth?
    2. What are you going to do after those who
    consume it but don’t produce anything have
    spent it all?
    3. Where are you going to get more after
    everyone is poor?
    4. Whose money is it anyway?

  • Robert

    People, wake up! What killed all of those birds? Not fireworks like they claim. It’s the poison they spray in the sky. Look up once in awhile. See those puffed out lines criss-crossing all over the place in the sky? Chemtrails. What’s in them? High levels of aluminum, barium, e-coli and whatever else they decide to spray that day. Toxins made those animals drop dead. And anyone who fails to see the true picture is truly an idiot and deserves to be part of the human raced to be destroyed in the upcoming depopulation event.
    Earthquakes the cause. LOL!! That’s funny. I’m just wondering why humans weren’t killed…just the birds and fish. Perhaps the toxins weren’t enough to kill larger species, just give them a dose of poison enough to cause a terminal illness? Hmm. Think people. Wake up. Wear a ventilation maske on heavy spray days. Don’t get a flu shot. Eat organic, fresh food. Do not drink water out of a city tap. And for God’s sake, don’t believe everything on the news. Don’t you know it’s one of the biggest form of mass control?

  • Marie

    I am truly hurt to see the kind of responses were given to Gary’s post. It does not make you any better then he when you are saying that libertarians are trolls or some of the other horrible things said. I work hard; 80+ hours every 2 weeks, I’m educated (business school but still) and I would never wish anyone death shame on you Gary. But I would not belittle a full group over some misled members.

    As for the earthquake the real reason people should be posting, I can see why birds would fall from the sky and fish float to the surface. someone (can’t remember who to many of you all posting to keep track lol) said that the gas coming up from the breaks and the waves and all that. But at the same time as was said there would be no bird or fish in California if that was the case. Not to say that the earthquakes couldn’t happen, and gods willing it wont ever happen but if it does we’ll be there for each other no matter who or what. I think perhaps the birds and fish just have finally been overcome by the pollution in this world, some can survive it and some can not as is the way the world is sometimes.
    Okay I’ve said my peace. Blessings to you all.

  • infodeception

    It is weird that non of you talks about HAARP!
    HAARP causes Earthquakes by sending mirrored concentrated waves of energy to a certain point of a tectonic plate (yes it is that easy really)….
    The European Parliament sees HAARP officially as a weapon!

    google HAARP and you´ll be amazed!

  • Mike S

    In a strange coincidence (if you believe in coincidences)recently down here in New Zealand loads of fish have been washing up dead on the shore. See link below for more info:

    http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/4512779/Hundreds-of-snapper-wash-up-on-beaches

    And of course we had a major quake in Christchurch late last year. More powerful than the Haiti quake, loads of damage but thank goodness no loss of life

  • Mike S

    And further to my last post we recently had a tragedy with 29 miners dying at the Pike river mine. Massive explosion due to undetected (so must have been fast rise) increase in methane levels in the mine and ignition via an undergroud heat source.

    NZ lies on a major fault line, it seems there is massive seismic activity happening all over the globe

  • About the birds falling dead out of the sky. Perhaps it’s a combination of two factors – possibly related to the chemical trails – (chem trails) and the extremely cold winter this year. Maybe the combination of those two things are causing the death of these birds. It’s weird it was only reported in a few places though, Arkansas being especially hard hit. Since there have always been earthquakes occuring, it seems more likely, that a source of chemicals could be the culprit.

  • HE2

    Gary some “red” republican is probably working hard right now to pay your or someone close to you’s salary (or fund your food stamps) or in some way keep this barely-running show on the road. Follow the money to its source and you’ll see that’s true. So show a little respect and get back to work.

  • bill

    There is one striking error in this article–the author is comparing incorrectly. When the Richter scale was changed, it became incorrect to compare the old 8.0 quakes to a new scaled 8.0 quake–a new 8.0 quake would be much more powerful than than an old 8.0 quake.

  • About the birds falling dead out of the sky, perhaps it’s a combination of chemical trails – (chem trails) and the extremely cold weather conditions. It’s weird that it’s in just a few places though, especially Arkansas being especially hard hit.

  • Alan

    Arthur Guy, I didn’t know the military was so powerful in 1811-12 when the Great Earthquakes hit.(as you claim they control everything on Earth)

  • Jiggs

    No direct cause-and-effect relationship is being made in this article between dead birds and fish and the New Madrid fault zone. It is simply pointing out that the bird and fish kills occurred in the same general area as the NM fault. Is there a connection? That’s what we need to find out.

    Leave it to the fanatics of partisan politics and Dark Age religion to muck up another otherwise interesting and probably important story.

  • Steven

    To Walt:

    If you think we have unfettered, laissez-faire, capitalism, then you don’t (or refuse to) understand what that really is.

    We have over 80,000 pages of regulations in the Federal Register alone. Add in state, county, and city regulations. Mix in the greatest market manipulation mechanism (a central bank = Federal Reserve) and you end up with something that is far from unfettered, laissez-faire, capitalism. It’s not socialism or communism either. It’s a mixed-fascist (state controlled business) economy. Or in other words: corporatism.

    In reality, there has never been an unfettered economy (to our detriment), but we have had economies that were much freer than ours (China right now in many ways is). The truth is that wealth distribution has favored the wealthy more and more as freedom in the market has gotten less and less. Those with wealth have used government to create regulations to perpetuate and enhance their own wealth. Those regulations have many affects, the primary one to limit competition.

    Don’t buy the slight-of-hand that socialists want to us to believe, that what we have today is free market capitalism, as it is very much not true. Don’t fall for the trap that we need more government involvement (waste) to solve problems that the government itself created.

  • Shakingfist

    I always found this video fascinating and I wonder if it explains anything:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJfBSc6e7QQ

  • Buzzy Glass

    Yes this is going on because our government will not pump our oil out. They fell they will not make as much tax’s as our gas would be between .25 to .50 a gallon. And why have the pumps out west have not been allowed to run for so many years? We would pay $1.00 for them to make even more tax’s but they are not real to us at all. We have more oil below us than any other country. So in the end you see what is going to happen to the USA because of our fraud government people. Good luck to everyone maybe some time we will have a real government for the people only !!!

  • Pat

    What has been written in the Good Book is coming to be true.

  • mark

    I live in col.Ga self employed been running my company for 12 years had the biggest paint co. around, When that middle eastern terrist came in office my rich customers burried there money. want spend it. I work for some very welthy people and if they dont get tax breaks they dont spend. Im living proof of that, and if they dont spend i lay off men with familys, I dont want to pay for some free lodders health care. , all us hard working folks has always paid for the bums health care ,food , lights ,and what really makes me sick is these litte bastards driving brand new cars when they dont work. What they do is draw welfare and sell dime bags of pot that comes from people that should not be here any way feeding on my tax dollars. so if we going to get this place right again we have to stop the hand outs. If your not in a wheel chair go to work and stop leaching off us good people. If you dont have a visa get out,

  • April

    Gary, if you didn’t have republicans you would have no wealth to spread! On another note this article is awesome and many of your comments are too. I live in the new Madrid zone and have been warned of a quake like this my entire life. I sure hope it’s not coming but I think I might stockpile some stuff just in case. I don’t trust the government to warn us even if they do suspect a relation between these events and the new Madrid fault system and I don’t trust them to help us either.

  • April

    And you know people the government is not responsible for spreading the wealth…we are. Morally we are responsible for taking care of our fellow Americans in times of crisis, financial ruin, illness, and other devastating circumstances. Americans are by far the most giving people in the world and I believe that we are much better at spending our money than the government. Maybe if that single mother didn’t have to give uncle Sam so much money for pork barrel projects, she could afford to buy her babies milk, just saying.

  • Ronin

    @Gary: Thx for being a tool, you really give liberalism a good name /eyeroll… you should never wish death upon anyone, and you should know the only people who would really be hurt are the hard working men and women… not the rich who are walking on their backs.

    @Everyone @ing Gary: While he IS an idiot, some of your responses are equally idiotic.

    Quite frankly, I think all you liberals, conservatives, democrats, republicans, “tea partiers”, constitutionalists, yada yada yada are ALL wrong. This system simply won’t hold, it can’t. The sooner you all realize that and just drop this nonsense, the better off we will all be.

    oh, and Mark… I don’t even know where to BEGIN with you. I’d prolly start by throwing you into a refugee camp in africa so you can learn a bit more perspective and compassion.

    It’s not that bloody complicated people. Your jobs… meaningless. Your car, your tv, your computer, all useless. Fun and nice to have, sure… maybe… But we ALL need food, water, shelter, and love. Until we have that, wtf is the point of the rest of this drivel?

  • Cholivan

    The reason for the dead bird phenomenon is because of the gases leaking somewhere in the fault line. Birds are susceptible to gases.

  • Thomas

    Google This: HAARP

    The nutcase elitists have an earthquake machine. I would like to think they would not use it at all, but especially on their own country. But Hey, 9/11 happened. It is amazing how the earthquakes coincide with HAARP being turned on. Go to Amazon and check out “Angels Don’t Play This HAARP”. Tesla Technology. The people who run this country are pure evil. Gary, the problem is not specifically Republicans but Politicians. If you are still part of the democrat vs. republican argument rather than the people vs. the gov’t argument then you are just plain stooopid. Get a glove and get in the game would you? Corruption is the only bipartisan thing in Washington. Obama really made things better with a democrat house, senate, and the white house, right? No wait, George Bush made things better right? They are the same big government, facist party. Maybe you should stop watching TV and learn how to form your own thoughts before the big earthquake.

    The Gulf oil leak may have caused this activity in the Madrid fault?, nonsense.
    That was a mere pin prick that is like a garden hose running from a leak under Niagara falls.

  • chris

    latter days folks. Things are and will intensify. Natural destructions and man-made (man’s evilness), will continue to bring about consequences of destruction. Yet, God is at the helm. Strive to keep His commandments, repent, listen to the promptings of His Spirit, and endure, daily, and till the end. Keep your family relationships strong. Keep your eye on the signs of the times, middle east, and the middle of the surface earth, specifically Missouri, the future New Jerusalem.

  • Encourager

    Have any of you wondered if a solar flare could be responsible for the flocks of birds dying? Birds use the magnetic field to navigate. If that is disrupted, birds could possibly fly right into the ground. Just a thought. We have had a lot of solar flares and more on the way until they peak in 2012. As for the fish in the Ark river, weren’t they all the same species? Could a disease cause it? Let’s think this through and stop getting side-tracked with politics. As one poster said, we all need food, water, shelter and love. So what have you done to protect yourself and your families? Anything? Or are you trusting the government to take care of you? Remember Katrina!!!

  • Saint

    Question I had did a search on another subject on ancient maps and on this map of North America showed a lake of some sort in the middle of North America. Is it possible as stated above this earthquake instead of creating a new body of water just bring back the body of water that was on this ancient map of North America. This body of water was about three or four states big. If I can remember right, that’s a lot of water and displaced people.

  • Martin

    On the birds issue, have they yet to rule out a poisonous gas leak, perhaps methane?

    On the quake issue some seem to suggest, possibly,
    a massive sinkhole.

  • Calum

    If birds dying were signs of an earthquake, then here in New Zealand we would have birds dying every day. We had a 7.1 Earthquake late last year, caused by a faultline that hadn’t moved in around 7000 years. Did masses birds die? Umm, no. The implication that “birds dying = faultlines coming to life” has as much credibility as a three dollar note.

    And as for the “Ooo, it must be the End Times” theists, if a good thing happens due to “mysterious” circumstances, it is called a miracle, yet if bad things happen in mysterious circumstances, it’s demonic or “End Times” approaching. The same mysterious circumstances can lead to good and bad things happening, yet only the good things are called miracles? Why? The same cause for both occurred. “Mysterious circumstances” means we haven’t found the reason for it yet. If we gave up looking and believed the theists, we may as well go back to living in the 1500s.

  • Things are interrelated to coming events of 2012
    and around that date. Birds falling from the sky
    due to geomagnetic pole shift, air pollution by
    contrails, sudden viral disease outbreak or all
    these things taken together. Possibility of big
    earthquake at New Madrid fault exists like every-
    where else in the ring of fire. We will see if
    the Sun companion is closing on on us in the near
    future.

  • The fault of New Madrid and the fate of America
    are related to the fate of St. Emeric the Hungarian prince and the name giver to this
    continent. His death came after boar hunting and
    his body was ripped apart. It happened on 3rd of
    September 1031. At that time Hungarians or the Magyars run and sacked the Europe for ransom using military techniques inherited from the Far East. We the People somehow descended from them and only ETs of universe will know when that wheel of fate and fortune will close down on this continent and the world through the earth changes. Maybe those are the changes we were
    promised in 2008. That’s my story of the fault.

  • mark

    I blame the Republicans for any earthquakes….no make that the Democrats. I think G.W. Bush started the faultlines and now B.O. is trying to fix them. The liberals are responsible for natural disasters….no make that the conservatives.

  • BilWe

    Beyond denial, it’s all related to covertly-injected HAARP. Once it’s switched off, the “climate” will return to normal, among other unexplained “anomalies”.

  • echo 1

    Note to author: Haiti was a crapbox before the quake. I don’t think the quake there really did much to hurt that place.

    @Mark: First off, you say you “had” the biggest paint Co. around when “that middle eastern terrist came in office my rich customers burried there money” (your words)…LOL. It’s people like you that just don’t get it. With your rich customers who you say don’t spend their money if they don’t get tax breaks, well wahh, wahh. You have absolutely no clue that it’s the middle class who make this country run NOT the rich who DON’T spend their money and DO get the tax breaks. You sound like one of those pitiful birthers who have been laughed about and who criticize anyone who doesn’t look like you, get a life, this country was founded by immigrants. You might do yourself a favor and make sure all your workers are legal, as it’s business owners who continue to employ undocumented workers in this country and pay them low wages.

    As far as the dying birds and fish go, there are some really interesting posts on here and I have been reading all of them with interest.

      everybody stop talking about politics. the government. does not have any thing to do with natural disasters. I KNOW OBAMA SUCKS BUT LISTEN TO YOUR SELF’S! WHY WOULD YOU BLAME THE GOVERNMENT! IT IS NOT LIKE THEY CAN JUST FLIP A SWITCH. they are plenty of reasons why these animals are dying. if technology was not so damn advanced and we did not have these big buildings and every thing we would not care. as some of you may have heard this phrase: buildings kill not earthquakes. any thing is possible in this world remember that.

    Ok, look it’s all pish posh really. Some here believe that science doesn’t have the knowledge… When in fact they can tell you how to solve a rubix cube exactly how many moves and which ways to do it… (I’m confused) Now lets see here, science knows that earth crust displacement is real (moving tectonics). They even know which way’s it’s moving and at what rates and distances. They also track magnetic and geomagnetic feilds on and around the earth. They have a reasonably good grasp on how all the layers we are standing on, that are floating on magma raise and fall and at what points this happens… They even keep anatomical time (which has had to be adjusted several times) to monitor these events. (how do they keep adjusting that so?) (do they have an official watch winder to tell them if their clock is wrong?) sorry being facetious… This guy some where up in the comments says well drilling is like a pin prick… ? dude, fill a baloon with air stand a book up on each side of it ^ like that(equal height is recommended for this experiment), now take the top to a shoe box first ripping all four corners out of it, and lay it across the top of the whole thing. Got all that? Set a glass of wine on the shoe box top right over the ballon and give the baloon a prick and watch. For best results prick the baloon at an end and not in the middle, now see how long the glass of wine stays on the box top over the baloon… Come on people every little thing has a big impact on this planet, thats why mother earth kills so many so often. None of you (or to be fair I should say most of you) are not prepared to trade your conveniences to live the way we should for the bennefit of the planet, disposable life styles are to easy to maintain…

    • Taylor

      Wow, so much to think about. I know I would be willing to give up lots of modern junk. My sister & I talk of it lots. You sound smart. I am on Mother Nature’s side w/you!

  • Mary Louise Cameron

    Unbelievable. Do some of you people really believe that 2012 is the END of TIME? What about all of those people who went to the highest peak in Northern California, threw their house keys in a pile and proceeded to wait for the rapture? (this was back in 1995) They thought the world was coming to an end at Midnight December 31., What about the hundreds of thousands who KNEW that the earth was coming to an end on December 31, 1999? Oh Lord help us.

    The thing that kills me is the ignorance of the people, this whole article is wack… Its was supposed to be a discussion about a fault line and ended up politicaly based??? The new madrid fault line itself is just as big as san andreas you dorks. It goes from south of the gulf to through the great lakes in its entirety, thats only one hundred and fifty miles? Haiti is on the south point of the same fault and it goes through the great lakes to the atlantic by maine, now what? The dead animals, do some research the other side of the world had nearly the exact same thing happen… (check for yourselves) Is there anyone in this world that doesnt run on dumb? You should only let semi intelligent people post here, on topic please… Now this bs about thirty five hundred dead and eighty thousand injured??? Come on two hundred and thirty thousand people in Haiti and its not even a third of the center of this country that new madrid covers, you need to rethink your figures.

  • JL

    If ignorance is bliss america is fine…

  • connie

    HAARP and Scaler technologies are being used as weapons by many nations. The UN agenda is to decrease the population of the world by 90%. A massive earthquake in the middle of this country probably would take care of a good percentage of the quota that this country has to come up with.

  • Muddigrl

    I tend to agree with JL… come on people wake up!!!!!!!!

  • Russ

    In no way take this beleive as fact or fiction, im a nerd and the dead birds raised my attention and then the media raised my attention to the fish dieing all around. In do to my beleifs I am seeing all this very clear, take it as you want.

    WEST NILE VIRUS IN BIRDS? FULL ARTICLE HERE http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2010/09/16/nj-reports-1st-west-nile-death-of-2010/

    Researched this more and came to a conclusion that the bees are dieing off, without bees, 80% of population dies, Pestisides that we create damaged the bee pollinization which inturn affected Creatures dissapearance and just take a good look at the oil spill, It was a HUGE RELEASE OF METHANE GAS and the government tried to cover it up and they are failing miserably.
    Here id like to show you these videos and you make up your mind about the wildlife dieing off…
