this earthquake registered between 2.8 and 3 on the richter scale. was there much damage?on the richter scale probably wouldn't raise an eyebrow but it is unusual over here and we have about three per year of this size in the uk and there was an earthquake not too far away from teesside in north yorkshire last week, but it was very minorand quite yorkshire last week, but it was very minor and quite below ground, so we didn't really feel the effects. this one, bit closer to the surface and it was in norton near stockton—on—tees and was felt as far —— as far away as hartlepool and the epicentre was pinpointed to a street called crooks barn lane and we sent mark out there to speak to residents and he caught up with a former gp who only found out about the quake thanks to someone on the other side of the world. i felt nothing. we slept through the whole thing. but, being retired you don't get up that early, but we had a whatsapp from my daughter in new zealand telling us that they'd asking if we'd experience the earthquake. he wasn't the only one who missed it. i did a skype i

what i found out was formula funding for west virginia initially, $7 million, danoh is my guru, dan richter, she has been a champ for us and for me in this issue but one i found out $7 million it sounds like a lot, can't even touch a drop in the bucket when you go through law enforcement, healthcare, treatment centers, job recovery, transition, foster care. how in the world and so because it was funded by population, smaller states like mine and new hampshire to have one of the largest problems per capita, we are number one, vermont is in the top five, smaller states are where it is ground 0, we were really losing out on the funding issue so i was able to carveout the money in the appropriations bill to say if you have a highly effective state the 15% we carved out to be able to go directly towards the highly effective states, it meant 50 million more dollars to my state and that i think is something. nothing against -- i asked rob portman to you have this problem in ohio? we really don't have a problem in ohio because we have a population that dropped funding and we don't have the problem
