Are the Peabody Ducks open to the public?
Q. I'm planning a trip to Memphis and I really want to see the procession of ducks at the Peabody Hotel. But I want to know if the procession of ducks is open to the public or just to people who stay in the hotel because I cannot afford a room there.

A. Anybody can see the duck march. I went on a Grayline Sightseeing Tour and they stopped at the Peabody Hotel for the Peabody Duck March. It is adorable. You'll enjoy it very much.

What would be the impact of a major earthquake in Memphis, TN?
Q. What area would liquefaction have its most effect? Is there any possibility of a breach of the aquifer? Would the levee fall? Would older structures such as the Peabody Hotel fall? Would other structures in the downtown area sink? How far eastward would be affected? Could the Mississippi River flood and if so, to what degree?

A. In the 1830s, I think, there was a major quake (magnitude 8.3) centered in New Madrid, MO. It was worse than the quakes along the San Andreas in California. The reason is that California has many fault lines, but Memphis & New Madrid are at the center of the North American continental plate. It's more brittle there.

Fortunately, not many people lived in that region in 1830 (or maybe it was a bit earlier, like 1824; look up New Madrid earthquake) so there were relatively few casualties and not much economic damage. But the shaking was enormous, and I believe the Mississippi changed course.

To answer your question more directly, I believe Memphis is significantly at risk; a repeat of New Madrid would be devastating. You can probably learn more by checking google or wikipedia; type in "New Madrid earthquake" and follow the links.
