In case some on the PSN list are not aware of the NEIC's bigquake
mailing list, here is a sample of the mail that is sent out following
large earthquakes.  At 7.8 we'll probably here more about the Turkey
earthquake in the news tomorrow.

This page:
http://wwwneic.cr.usgs.gov/neis/data_services/data_services.html
tells how to subscribe to the bigquake list.

I am only one, But still I am one.
I cannot do everything, and because I cannot 
do everything, I will not refuse 
to do the something that I can do.
