Talk:2965: Chili Tornado Quake

for some reason I always feel nervous providing an initial transcript like I'm gonna do the format wrong but nah this transcript is pretty simple, would be hard to get it very wrong - Vaedez (talk) 04:02, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

wait--is the titletext missing a "due"? - Vaedez (talk) 04:04, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

I think so, yeah. First time I've seen Randall make a mistake in the alt text. 162.158.137.212 04:33, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

Funnily enough, an earthquake large enough to shake the house occurred near me today! No chili peppers and definitely no tornadoes nearby, (un)fortunately. 162.158.91.92 04:02, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

Wonder how the scales combine. Given that Richter and Fujita are both single digit numbers (well, Richter can go above 10, but normally only when Roland Emmerich is directing), they would be pretty meaningless in an additive scale, so I would assume multiplicative. If so, the amount of damage to the building suggests relatively mild peppers.RegularSizedGuy (talk) 04:11, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

what if it's like a geometric mean or smth? that feels like it makes more sense than additive and it would also allow the average pepper involved in the incident to be higher than the 55k listed - Vaedez (talk) 04:19, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
