The list of earthquakes of magnitude 5.5 and greater for the period covering June the 15th in 1991. I came across an interesting phenomenon I have only just seen:


Try this one:

Two nuclear tests took place that year and were immediately followed by magnitude 7 earthquakes:

5.6 mb 1991-04-04 19:00 37.296 -116.313 Nevada
nuclear explosion

7.1 mw 1991-04-05 04:19 -5.982 -77.094 northern Peru
earthquake and:

5.5 mb 1991-05-29 18:59 -22.256 -138.794 Tuamotu Archipelago, French Polynesia
nuclear explosion

7 mw 1991-05-30 13:17 54.567 -161.606 Alaska Peninsula
earthquake

Coincidence?
Anyone know what occurred on September the 15th?

5.5 mb 1991-09-14 19:00 37.226 -116.428 Nevada
nuclear explosion

besides this, that is:

5.8 mw 1991-09-15 06:39 -17.879 -116.021 SE Pacific Rise earthquake

Why can't we all observe the world in linear dimensions like Stoopid does?
