USGS Earthquake Notification

For those of us interested in earthquake news, the USGS has an email notification system that might be worth a look.

You can adjust some parameters, like where in the world an earthquake must occur for you to receive an email.  Mine is set for anywhere in the world, as long as it is a magnitude 6.0 or greater.

Pretty fascinating how many earthquakes occur somewhere on the planet.  The other day, I received 5 separate notifications!  Three were off Honshu, Japan; one was in Cuba, and one in Indonesia.
