When I lived up in WA I had a ham radio & laptop setup at home for APRS. Simple explanation of APRS is GPS data packets over the air. Anyway, somebody had configured a station to send out a packet from Mount St. Helens every time it made a significant peep. There would be dozens in a day, ranging from little 1.x up to stuff in the 3s and 4s. Pretty neat to watch.

The average person has no idea how much seismic activity there is all around them and is easily alarmed. Personally, I wouldn't worry about it until multiple Ph.D. geo-geeks start getting on the news and telling everyone to panic. Like up in Alaska right now. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
