Help The Walls Are Shaking!

This week the seismic survery crews have been doing what they get paid to do in the local area around our home. They have been setting off charges and taking their seismic readings, all a necessary part in the exploration of domestic oil and gas. Lord knows I am for focusing our primary efforts domestically in this search.. But this exploration in our neighborhood is getting a little close for comfort. Last Friday my wife called and all the somoke detectors where going off in the house, without the presence of smoke and they came on and went off all day long. We finally concluded it had something to do with the explosions the seismic crews were setting off. It stopped over the weekend.

Well today my wife called me again and said the house was shaking so bad, that she was afraid things would start falling off shelves and walls , and that this had been going on all afternoon. Yep. They were setting off charges again today, only this time it was closer to the home than last week, and last week the house wasn't being shaken like a mild earthquake each time they blasted.

Does anyone out there know if these charges are supposed to shake homes? I don't want to appear to be complaining, but we are just a little concerned about not being home when things do start falling off the walls.

Have a prosperous week!
