Ring of Quakes and Oklahoma

I know, it's the Ring of Fire and while that is appropriate today, also, today's quakes circle the Pacific nicely...and then there's Oklahoma. The big action is at the junction of the Australian plate and the Pacific plate in the vicinity of Fiji and the Solomon Isles. Some pre-quakes set the stage for the biggest quake at 6.4. Aftershocks will likely be the order of the day in that collision/subduction zone. How long before all that slippin' and slidin' of rock will lead to the melting and spewing of liquid rock that brought  those islands to life; nothing on the volcano list today. It will likely be soon... but only in Earth time, and that and human time are far from synched.
Where human and Earth time are more closely synched: Oklahoma (and now Kansas). Still more measured quakes in Oklahoma than California on a daily basis but the oil industry doesn't mention the quakes in their commercial singing the praises of fracking. No water pollution, lots of jobs, cheap gas; you'd think that fracking was a wonderful thing and that blowing up the earth to free the hydrocarbons trapped in shale formations was the best thing ever. Back to Earth time and not quarterly, corporate time there is likely another outcome: water pollution is an issues in many (most?) fracking regions, the fire still burning Backen shale oil in WVa, pipeline leaks (of course, they leak, just not news worthy), truck crashes and fires (local news...unless it hits a bus) and earthquakes, hundreds of quakes.
Sitting somewhere that's not shaking daily, quakes in the 2 and 3 and 4 magnitude range seem cute and harmless. Take it from a resident on the recently very shaky Central Va. Quake zone, they are neither cute nor harmless; they take a psychological toll and EVERY earthquake is the earth readjusting itself and means change. Tiny changes that over time stirs volcanoes and moves continents, builds mountains, unleashes tsunamis and results in the planet we see today, but, only today. Earth time can be very slow, but abrupt changes to the system (the Earth cares not about cause) can make those changes speed up to a time very noticeable by humans.
Will fracking in Oklahoma trigger the New Madrid quake zone along the Mississippi to fire back up? If St. Louis shifts half a mile toward (or away from) Memphis will the oil companies be there to help? No one driving a Hummer in the US takes any blame for the giant typhoons that hammered the Philippines the last two years.  How has coal burning in the world to produce the electricity we "need" changed jet stream patterns that has Boston buried in deep snow and below zero temps headed for the south tonight, here deep into February. We don't know, but while knowledge is difficult to obtain, denial is easy, ask any lawyer or oil company executive: you can't prove it was me!!
7+ billion humans and we all want it all. We'll see how that works out long (and short) term here on the shaky planet, shifting on today and everyday: Earth.
