IMO, blasting at the quarry

Sorry, your opinion is wrong. It was all over the news.

Our outdoor security cameras recorded the sound. It was a "double boom" at 8:25 and 10 seconds (+- 1 or 2 seconds for time accuracy) per the time stamp on the recording. Sound level was much reduced on the recording but the house shook when it actually happened. I thought my 15' long shelf in the garage came down again (which happened a couple of years ago and sounded almost like it).

Who do you sue when the boom causes a heart attack, accident, or a surgical accident, ending in death? Really. Who ya gonna call? Inquiring minds want to know!

Call Dan Newlin.

It's an event to someone that never experience it before and 50 posts are minimal based on the number of forum members.

Please elaborate how this sonic boom that was about 1/4 as loud as a close lightning strike harmed anyone or anything???? Maybe I'm indifferent to it having grown up on Long Island near Grumman Aerospace---these "booms" were a weekly occurrence in the sixties.
The Nevada National Guard used to take off between our house in Reno and Rattlesnake Mountain. There would be sonic booms every so often.

Our neighbor was one of the National Guard pilots and also a Reno area lawyer. Later would become a General at the Pentagon.
