Don't know if its an extension of the New Madrid fault or not... but the midwest has potential for some big shakes.

Can't remember what year exactly but I know it was between 1980 and 1985 that we had a pretty good shake here in Ohio. I think it was like a 5.0-5.4 or something. To lazy to look it up but I was painting a wall in the house when everything rattled for like 10 seconds. No big deal but I remember asking my wife what the hell she was doing?? She always gets the blame!!

Got the plates. DMV closes doors at 4:45 and I got there at 4:42. :whew: Sped the whole way there. 
Put the front one on real easy, but I've got the rear camera frame on the back plate and its got security bolts and I even drilled a small whole in the top edge of the old plate to get camera wire through. So its gonna take longer than I wanted to. I've got to undo the spliced wire inside the rear panel in the trunk first.

I felt it too, it woke me up. I thought a snow plow had hit the attached unit next to me or something like that, or possibly a really big gust of wind like a microburst. I walked around the house a little bit, turned on a few lights to look around, was confused as hell until I got online with my phone and found the news article about it.
