Your replies betray your fear that what I have posted is fact or most probably true and you don't like it one bit. No amount of reviling me or anyone is going to change the truth. You are just too eager to dismiss any occurrences not known to you before. If anyone is stupid, it's YOU!!! You are making a most egregious display of your ignorance!!! It was most probably only a minor earthquake confined to the immediate vicinity of the WTC. So, no wonder the rest of New York didn't feel it. I guess that, even if it was strong enough to be perceptible, the fear of death and of more dire happenings to come might have caused the public not not have noticed it at that time. You see, they themselves were shaking so much with fear (and partially deafened by the prior explosion and the general hustle and bustle) that the quake most likely didn't register in their consciousness! Have you any idea how big/small New York is compared with the rest of the state? Have you any idea about the Richter Scale? Logarithmic scale, that is? Exponential increase and decrease of intensity of energy of quakes with distance from the source of disturbance? If you have any idea, you will see why the minor quake (not a real earthquake of far greater intensity) was most probably not noticed by people relatively far away from the WTC. If instruments failed to record it, then it was not strong enough to be recorded where the seismometers was located. If something is fact, then no amount of protesting and reviling and bullshit by you is going to change it. See the 1st para of this post again. America has a superabundance of shrinks. To be sure, you will do well to see one or more of them and then some.....................
