Seismologists Identify Ground Zero for Underground Disturbance




For the past 48 hours seismologists across the country have been zeroing in on an unusually source of underground disturbance. Starting early Friday morning the underground vibrations have increased at a steady rate and picked up intensity.

Using different detectors from 17 different universities seizmologists located the disturbance as being in the area of Sharon, a small town located in Litchfield County in Connecticut. Refinements narrowed the search area to Saint Bernard Cemetary and final tests have isolated the vibrations as coming from the the area underneath the marker of William F. Buckley.

William F. Pederstone head of the Geology Department of the University of Pittsburg related his findings to a stunned gathering of reporters. "Once we identified where the sound was coming from we put listening devices on the area and could hear a grinding sound. We then put a sonograph detector on the grave spot and could see that there is actually spinning going on."

Playing back the results of the underground sonograph showed that the rotations seemed to speed up exactly in sinc with developments at the CPAC conference in Washington, DC. Rotations timed at about 57 RPM were recorded when the John Birch Society entered the hall and set up shop, it hasn't been lower than 57 RPM since that time.

Different speakers at the conference triggered different RPM levels Gingrich's speach peaked at 157 RPM while Glenn Becks ran a range of about 450 RPMs and when he broke into tears it double to almost 910 RPMs.

When the CPAC voting concluded selecting Ron Paul and Mit Romney as one and two in the Presidential poll the spinning settled in at a steady 245 RPMs.

In a related development emergency rooms across the US are recording increased stroke and heart attack responses among conservatives and 'freepers' when the vote was announced. Stephen Horsedinker professor of Reactionary Politics at the University of Deleware explained that "Ron Paul and Mit Romney being chosen as leaders of the conservative movement has tea baggers and freepers vomiting all across the country. Paul's antiwar and uhber isolationist viewpoints and Romney's representation of the established CEO corporate eliltist couldn't be further away from the macho Cheney Wing and the evangelical Huckabee Wing of the Party."

"This is why they go crazy over Palin. She unifies the macho and religious fervor that has replaced the Republican equivalent of thinking."


The deep divisions in the Republican Party between Ron Paul's anti establishment grassroots movement, Mit Romney's increasingly discredited representation of the failing CEO class, the religious Huckabee wing and the Macho Cheney Militarists are all coming into conflict with the Tea Party Movement.

It is doubtful that even Ronald Reagan could stem this increasingly inevitable civil war in the Republican/Conservative movement.

The only leader that seems to be able to wed the two largest factions, the radical religious right and the ubher militarists seems to be Sarah Palin.

Scientists in Connecticut are pondering ways to capture the energy source in Sharon, Connecticut as sustainable non carbon energy source.

6. Between Buckley and Ted Kennedy....
we should be able to provide clean energy for a town of about 10,000....

(When Scott Brown got elected promising to kill health reform, "... the late Senator Kennedy was clocked at 78 r.p.m., tying an old record."

(Many thanks for the segue -- and good stuff, as we've grown to expect from Sr. Cheetham!)

25. You have vastly underestimated Ted when you said...
"we should be able to provide clean energy for a town of about 10,000....

(When Scott Brown got elected promising to kill health reform, "... the late Senator Kennedy was clocked at 78 r.p.m., tying an old record."

When Brown was elected Ted was spinning faster than one of those Nascar engines at Daytona last week.

8. Frankly, I'm offended
... that they would bury the guy in the same county where I used to live. I'll take refuge in the thought that it's only temporary, though, as he'll probably be sucked back out of the earth in the form of a pocket of natural gas or fossil fuel.

His life will amount to about $80 a barrel.

:P

9. Yo!, Phrig!!!!
Long time no see!!! - You gotta keep in touch a little more often.

Fucking grantcart is ruining the joint with halfwit numerology solutions to global worming(sic) and bogus 'geometric logic answers for strawberries' and keeps mumbling something about "The Captain Queeg Ice cream theorem"

We need some solid stats, stat!!!!

12. Hi Cliffy! There's a six-foot patch of ground in Connecticut ...
... that might be a good start for global worming.

:rofl:

Yeah, most of the stuff that grantcart spouts that turns out to be crap seems to be coming from his alter ego, Dewey. Might be the Boone's Farm Tickled Pink he swills from a box in the fridge.

He's on to something with that Captain Queeg theorem, though ... I overheard Stephen Hawking mention it in the bathroom.

:hi: :loveya:

24. I live in Litchfield County. I could make the trip for you to check and see if old Buckley is still
there. Then again...isn't Sharon haunted to begin with? Dudleytown and all that. Or is that in Cornwall? Either way, I think I will stay away from that cemetary...

20. Cute Thanks for the smiles.
I was hoping you would find an underground water tunnel with
atomic submarines shooting missiles up the earth or something
sci-fi, but this is more unique.
