We ha felt both of the last two earth quakes here in Heber Springs in the Cow Shoals area. The one at 2:13 the 18th lasted for several seconds. I think it is about time to move out of this area even though I love it here.

The cause isn't unclear, they just don't want to admit that it's because of all of the drilling in the area. There is no history of quakes in that area and now all of a sudden there are "quakes" in the areas where drilling is the "hottest". If you are removing gas from between surface rock it is going to leave gaps in the rock which are going to have to settle because of that thing called gravity. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out and no one is going to stop the drilling because of it so just admit it and stop acting surprised. None of us are!
