Hey wait till that big fault line which passes through Missouri decides to shuffle around a bit. New Madrid or similar. Last time it decided to kick up its heels it made the Church Bells Ring in Boston...or so the story goes. 1700's seems like.

Never felt it either. News is the only way we knew it happened.
