Thông tin trong bài: “In spite of the geologists' theory of plate tectonics, there are still gaps in man’s understanding and knowledge of the causes of earthquakes. Powerful earthquakes have occurred in places where plate boundaries are hundreds of miles away. In the 1800s New Madrid, Missouri, and Charleston, South Carolina, were shaken by earthquakes that no one had foreseen." (Mặc dù có lý thuyết của các nhà địa chất học về kiến tạo mảng nhưng vẫn còn những khoảng trống trong hiểu biết và kiến thức của con người về nguyên nhân gây ra động đất. Trận động đất mạnh đã xảy ra ở những nơi mà ranh giới mảng xa hàng trăm dặm. Vào những năm 1800, New Madrid, Missouri và Charleston, Nam Carolina đã bị rung chuyển bởi những trận động đất mà không ai có thể dự đoán trước được.)
