Just had another earthquake here...this time it was a bit stronger than usual, and lasted about 2-3 seconds, but no damage or anything. Just surprised us, is all! :p

Quake info here!

Oh, and added to the fact that there was a landslide in my neighborhood a few days ago. This is what happens when you a)originally use the hill as a quarry, b)later use it as a cemetery, c)build houses/buildings/condos on it, and d)forget that the hill is basically granite and sandstone that crumbles when saturated with an abundance of rainwater.

I could go on and on about landslide dynamics, but I have the feeling that you already have a pretty firm grasp on it. Needless to say, laugh's on the city planners who didn't pay attention to natural law.
