so how hard did you hit it - maybe you're to blame for the blip on the mcquuens valley seismograph!

It'd be fun to find a seismograph and go give it a good whack with a pick. Hopefully make some geologist fill his pants in anticipation of the 12.5 earthquake thats apparently coming his way. I'm sure it couldn't possibly be that easy, though
