OMG The earthquake scared me so bad...

That is not the same as what Claeric is stating ....that the town is stagnant, but it appears to change for you as the firefighter. The town changing and being restored in a few days is one thing. It not actually changing is another. Either way, it is good news as there is not permanent damage.

I have been having fun with the Detonate feature. I don't know how, but I managed to take out the entire scrap yard with one explosion! I set it on the tall narrow pile, and it blew up everything: All the piles, the cars, the furniture in the building, everything!

Afterwards, I noticed a grave 'plaque' on the floor by the building. Was that always there, or did I kill someone?

There is already at least one grave marker in the scrapyard.
