"Is there a mild prolonged earthquake occurring, which could possibly signal a larger on coming, possibly "the big one", or maybe yellowstone if it hasn't been disproven as being a significant risk factor, or am I just high?"
To be honest part of me feels excited and hope it's a good strong long lasting earthquake. Ah, brings to mind the Japanese tsunami. There is some incredible footage, and there's just an exhilaration you don't get anywhere else when your fellow citizens are in danger, the normal relative stability of a society destroyed, swept away by an incredible force of nature. Actual struggle against physical reality that could easily bring death, the forces of the world, which is no longer present for most of those in first world countries, at least not in the same genuine way, rather usually an imitation of it, a safe version, or due to their own stupidity.
