someone is a GEO-unit nerd. What a hax, get a life.

Matata is always shaking. If you look back it probably features more than any where else.
Its quite close to Edgecumbe where they had that magnitude 6 in '87.

[Wasp]

oh okay, interesting

just never noticed anything like that number of quakes on geonet before, i hadnt checked it in ages (since the great auckland quake) and thought it was weird

Its actually South/East of Matamata but who's counting :D

All just little ones. Releasing pressure. The more of these there are, the less likely to get a big one.

Since this saying works on so many levels I've chosen it as my new signature.

Didnt you hear the news? all the scientists have cleared off but the tourist companies are still going there

[Highlander]

See the dinosour in the crater?

I subscribed to their email alert when there is an earth quake - most days there are, and probably about half would be Matata (guessing, cause I'm too lazy to count them, and I'd run out of fingers and toes anyway).

[RC1]

if it was in matamata it wouldnt be missed , full of inbreds :dodge:

[Quartermile]

Is that why they're so short?
