Certainly not I. My wife and I were knocking tectonics ourselves at the time. No stranger to the art of subduction, I had already set off a number of small tremors and foreshocks by focusing my energies on the epicenter of her ring of fire, when suddenly, my Blind Thrust Fault locked with her Benioff Zone, triggering a seismic moment that registered completely off the Richter Scale, resulting in the liquification of her molten core and my own personal tsunami. I don't mean to brag, but there were several moderate aftershocks of magnitude 5.0 or greater. If I had known about the earthquake, I would have asked her if I had made the Earth move for her, but unfortunately, neither one of us noticed it.

Hmmm... I wonder what Lucy Jones would have to say about that!

(FYI - Dr. Lucy Jones of USGS is So. Cals. 'go to gal' for instant earthquake info. She's all smart like that.)
