Vancouver Island earthquake

6.1 - details still coming in.

Sounds like it was well off the coast of Vancouver Island. The center was 95 miles from the northern tip of Vancouver Island. That's about 300 miles from the city of Vancouver. No tsunami or damage on land.

They've been having earthquakes in the area all week.

It's all his fault. That'll be $10.

Any truth to the rumor that a small island full of socks and others has appeared?
Enough already. It's my fault! Get over it!

That'll be $10, please.

I'm sorry if I wasn't up front with concern about your well-being. After I read the story I realized that I didn't need to be concerned about your safety. I should have said that.
