arguchikOMFG!!!!!
i don't read the news for a couple of days, and what happens?
mt. rainier has a 4.5 magnitude earthquake!
cool. apparently it's not a prelude to an eruption, which is good. i'd love to see an eruption, but there are way too many people living way too close for me to feel any excitement about that particular volcano erupting. besides, it's the rainy season, so we probably wouldn't be able to see it from seattle anyway.
but wow! living in a seismically active area is feeding my secret inner geology geek. i've always been fascinated by rocks--all rocks, holdable and hikable alike--and where they come from, how they form. most geological processes happen so slowly we can't possibly watch the changes happen, but with volcanoes....
