The new Madrid fault is just not active enough. If Memphis were to break off and float down the Mississippi, Tennessee would be a better place!

Here's an irrelevant statement:
The park is located a few miles from the old Lorraine Hotel, where civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in 1968.
Uh, completely different part of town. No connection between the two other than they are in the same city. They could have well said "The park is located just a few miles from Poser's house, wehere many a deer have been eaten"
