Talking with some friends from near a town called Scargill that had a shallow 5.7 separate earthquake a week after the big one, they and a number others in the area have been hearing a lot of boom sounds coming from the ground, the sound started a few days before the 5.7 hit, sometimes a boom is followed by a quake other times just the sound only. A woman i know by the name of Sue was sitting reading when one major boom hit, she reckons it came from below the house and described it as been like very close over head thunder but only louder, so loud the house was vibrating, they are still happening everyday. A meeting was held just after the first 5.7 by a team of Geonet scientists and the local residences, the ground booming was raised to which the Geonet people really had no answers for.
It seem that there's still a lot to learn what forces taking place during periods of seismic disturbance.
The booming is a lot like what's in this video

Pretty amazing; we can but scurry about when the Earth moves, as it will, regardless of our desires.

Wow no matter what caused it, I wouldn't be standing under that rock pillar waiting to see what happened next. Didn't it sound sort of like a giant inhaling and exhaling? we know much of earth is alive, maybe the whole shebang is some sort of alien intelligent being we are living on, we being as fruit flies or eyelash mites to its intelligence and timeline. Mother Earth indeed...

I dont think those guys really thought of maybe a earthquake was following up behind those booms, my friend Sue watched that video and said, "that's it, thats exactly what they sounded like". Another person i spoke too yesterday who lives right next to one of the main ruptures said for many days after even when the ground wasnt shaking from aftershocks the ground was making all sorts of strange grinding and creaking noises.

Revisiting this thread: our Great Mother, Earth, is in no sense alien to us; we are Her children and privileged to live upon Her body and by Her good will, among all our kin, none less Her children than ourselves.
That things happen beyond our control/understanding isn't news; we aren't in control; forces/processes larger than ourselves run things. All things considered, I think that's good, because humans seem to have a real talent for fucking things up, climate-change deniers aside.

so, Connecticut isn't known for earthquakes. But there is a town called Moodus where such noises as you describe are regularly heard. It lies along the Connecticut River, which flows down an ancient fault line where New England once connected to Morocco. (waaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy back in the day.)
but why the noises are heard there, and no where else along this fault, noone knows. Perhaps Moodus is the mouthpiece...

I claim no expertise, but I suspect those rumblings are the trucks coming through the sub-Atlantic tunnel from Morocco, bringing hash and Islamic terrorists; please note that only one of those has a high in a car-load, although getting more bang for your buck is perhaps a wash.
BTW, not to pry, but are you no longer lactating because you sprayed it all on your trees? Did that seem to work? Inquiring minds want to know.

I miss the old days when the trucks were just full of minty green tea, couscous, tangines,coriander, leather goods and fossilized shark's teeth. |

No worries, I'm still lactating. Have not yet sprayed it on the trees--it's been too damn cold to expose the girls like that. But no worries, I'll try it and let you know the results!

This forum is sure as hell abreast the tide of agricultural research.
