i hope it wrong. I had a vision of something to do with axial. The closest axial is 300 miles off shore. Is that a different time zone?
I'm pretty sure for an entire group of islands and part of the west cost to just disappear underwater there would need to be serious amounts of messed up convection currents in the earth. The entire plate would have to sink really. An earthquake couldn't cause this to happen. Infact an earthquake would be an impact of such a thing occurring, not a reason for it...
I've never heard of that happening but besides the point, what are the chances of that truly happening?
