And I live in the Midwest, so even less earthquake prone. But even we recorded the effects of the recent earthquake up in Quebec. Having the sensors spread out helps confirm the actual strength and depth of the earthquake. So no matter where you're located, it can help with the science if you run the WU's.
Just need to get lucky like I did and fall into a few old IBM Thinkpad laptops that are actually supported without the sensor. :)
I was looking at thinkpads today. a project has more say in the laptop then anything else...

I've looked into that, and it's K-12 education, IIRC. So I'm out, but others may qualify...

So, do you think Indiana is an area they were considering for seismic activity?

All areas can be seismically active. :)

Not too much around here. The only way things get seismically active is if I get rubbed the right way and then hopefully the seise increases!:)
Sorry, couldn't pass it up.:)
Re: Quake-Catcher Network Seismic Monitoring (QCN)
Ok I looked today and SG is like a month away from passing us so I ordered 4 dongles. That should even it up.
