              True, a part of me expected it to be lower...but still...which "IT Pro" DOESN'T know about basic interfaces...? None of those are even THAT old...

                  At least that's better than the DNS quiz that was asking about Windows Server things.

                        That's a lot of damage for such a small quake.

                            Oklahoma building standards probably don't account for earthquakes of any sort. Now ask me what I think of most building standards... just kidding, don't.

                              Had a client in Hutchinson, Kansas tell me they felt it..

                              That is the problem with destabilizing the rock structure in an area of the tectonic plates that is normally solid. Quakes are felt for quite a ways.

                                Did they find a 1950s lost nuclear carrier (rumour is that it is not actually a nuke but the framework of one with TNT in it) in Canada.

                                  Yup, but with no nuclear bomb and it located somewhere in the red circle not many people really care

                                        It was a human diver that found it, it was right off of the land.
