Hi Kiddo. Okay I’ll do it but thanks a lot. You stay home in a nice warm house while I sit out in the cold at night listening to the yodel dogs. In the daytime some of the ranchers will drive by giving me some weird looks.
When they ask me what I'm doing how am I going to explain to them
I'm trying to catch a quake? They will just laugh and say USGS tried
and they didn't catch it.

I hope the jars have a rubber seal cause the quake could leak out if it
isn't real tight. Then there is always the chance the quake could be
a lot bigger then we expect so the large jar may not do it. I suppose
I could use all 3 of them. I don't think I should keep them on the
table though. When the quake strikes they could roll off and I would
have to chase them. Now that would be a sight to see. Me trying to
catch 3 jars while the quake is knocking me all over the place. What a
ride that would be.

Sure hope you're right about the magnitude. I don't think the
trees in the area would stand up to a large quake. I have to camp
right under them and I'm not to keen on having one of them fall on
me. Could ruin my day.

May not be a bad idea though. I might be able to get my self a boar.
They should be nice an fat now. I need to refill my freezer. I could
get it and have the people at the café butcher it and freeze it for
me. The problem with that though is that I would have share with them.
If it isn't one thing it's another. Take Care...Don the earthquake catcher
