did anyone notice how fast usgs had it up, I saw jdavis's thread just second after it was posted it took me the three minutes difference to find my bookmark and they had the data up by then, 6 mins later, distance calcs and all. Anyone have any idea how there reporting stations work? I am assuming it auto posts to a database immediately but I would love to actually see how they are doing it, I bet it is an incredible bit of programming!
