Hi Thomas
I wanted to follow up on the message sent last week.
My name is Sharon Thornton and I am a research coordinator with The International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics.
I am in the process of gathering research on the long term effects earthquakes have on local economies, sociological costs and analysis of government action / programs organized as a response to earthquakes. As a part of my search I came across a resource that no longer works on your website. If you open this page http://sallyandsam.blogspot.de/2009_09_01_archive.html and try this reference http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Quakes/us2009mdbi.php it doesn't go anywhere.
I found the page simply moved here: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/data/
If you decide to update your site, I was wondering if you would be open to including a resource that I helped create covering: earthquake data for years 2005 - 2014, most devastating earthquakes 2005 - 2013, earthquake glossary.
You can find the resource here:
Earthquakes Data Magnitude 5.0 and Over 2005 - 2014 http://krilloil.com/blog/earthquake-data/
In addition you can find more info on the topic below:
Seismic Monitor http://www.iris.edu/seismon/
Quakes - Live Earthquakes Map http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/

Appreciate your time,

Of course, feel free to let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you for your help!
