I know many of you folks say that we have no EQs in our area so what good will this conference do for me?. Well a lot of you are wrong in stating that you have no EQs, perhaps you have not experienced one in your lifetime living in the area you live but as you know these things sometimes only occur once every 100 years or so or are so small that they go unnoticed!
