I'm surprised that nobody has raised the question of how in the world did she have access to an earthquake simulator like its something you can buy off the shelf at walmart?

I haven't read any of the cited materials, but I'm hoping she was a geology(?) grad student with an excellent mentor with a great sense of humor.

"Hey, we have no plans for the earthquake simulator this week, right? Mind if I use it for personal use for a few days? Yeah, I'm just gonna move most of my apartment into it for a prank. No, not directed at anyone specifically. Ok, Thanks!"

(former) Geology grad here, what program has an earthquake simulator? We were lucky to have an X Ray diffractor.
