When I was at SAIL ...
... we had a seismograph wired to send an alarm (sonalerts in all participants living quarters, ~100 participants) at the first sign of fairly low-level P-waves. After a year or so, not a single one of us managed to get out of the house before the S-waves got there.
Needless to say, the project was dropped as useless.
THAT said, as a many data-point gatherer, I'm all for it!
Biting the hand that feeds IT
