I just ran across this, and don't think anyone has mentioned it yet:

--- Quote ---An unusually powerful explosions in Siberia, Russia at February 2012 -are the repetition of the Tunguska explosion in 1908?

As reported the Geophysical Service of Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences- two unusually powerful explosions occurred in the last few days in the south of Western Siberia, a few dozen kilometers of the town of Belovo, Kemerovo Region, Russia. The first explosion took place February 9, 2012 at 20:30 pm, the explosion was such a huge force, that the inhabitants of cities Belovo Prokopevsk, Novokuznetsk, Kemerovo felt such powerful tremors of the earth, which in many apartments the furniture were falling, many residents were in the panic, ran into the street, thinking that this is an earthquake, but according to the Geophysical Service of Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences, that have been published already after a few minutes after these shocks- Russian Academy of Sciences excluded the possibility of an earthquake, as an explosion occurred on the surface of the earth, the force was M3.6 on the Richter scale. After this - at February 12, 2012 was another explosion, a little weaker, than the previous explosion, and the Geophysical Service of the Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences also noted, that it was an explosion but was not an earthquake and this explosion occurred exactly at the same place (the copy of the report message of Geophysical Service of Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences can be viewed at the top of this article). All the local press of the Kemerovo region for several days discussed these strange explosions, for first- these explosions can not be explained by the extraction of minerals, since the extraction of minerals in Russia at night time is strictly prohibited, and secondly, the explosions were so much force, that they were equivalent to an explosion of several thousand tons of explosives, and so much explosives do not have the local companies, that extract minerals in this region. Therefore, put forward suggestions, that it were the explosions like of the Tunguska explosion of 1908 or it were the testing of new models of tectonic weapons. Two days ago the specialists of Russian Academy of Sciences from Moscow arrived in Kemerovo, now in the area of explosions are prohibited the access of local residents.

I'd say it sounds like a meteor impact, but two impacts in exactly the same place seems strange.  Does anyone know anything else about this?

Laura:
I asked Ark to look into the Russian language news and it seems that there is some kind of industrial activity in the location that has a long history of explosions.  Either that, or meteors are impacting the same spot over and over and over again.

Nienna:
If it were meteor explosions, wouldn't someone have noticed the light?

On Belovo's city site (in Russian) they write (on 13th of February) that the local industrial company issued an official statement that they are not responsible for the trembling. According to them, they performed two explosions in the mid day, and that they couldn't in any way trigger seismic reaction in the evening. fwiw.

Also, it reminded me of the following story posted on SOTT:

Axxel:
Eyewitnesses wrote about explosion on February, 9th
"From explosions on our open-cast mine never such was. The explosion it was not audible. A blast wave by air too didn't feel, even glasses in windows didn't fluctuate, as it happens at explosions on opencast".

Depth of explosion - 21 km
