Sonic booms were a common occurence. On a few occasions they were very loud, and the whole house would shake, which did lead to some false earthquake reports. Graham |

Just curious, and again O/T (sorry). From the link you gave:

The scale is logarithmic, isn't it? So each subtraction of 1 from the magnitude will indicate a reduction in the intensity by a factor of 10. -- John Hall You can divide people into two categories: those who divide people into two categories and those who don't |
