The "Danville" events are about 3 miles from my house.
I didn't count them but it's something like 100 in the last 3-4 days.

Wheeee!

Every so often, when we feel a tremor, we'll go to this page and see what happened.

What nincomepoop came up with the idiotic idea that California was going to slide into the Pacific?

That is sheerly idiotic.

In the next few million years a small part of the CA coast (including about half of San Francisco and the extreme western part of Marin county) with head up to the artic areas near Alaska, but the rest of CA isn't going anywhere.

Point the second.  I'll take a major earthquake once every century over constant tornadoes and hurricanes any day.  The east coast only gets flattened a few times a decade by hurricanes, and you guys get horrified by the thought of a few 4.0 tremblors that you can scarcely feel?  Yeesh.

something about the thought of all those pretentious toejams in danville wacthing the gate of their gated community crumble is strangely satisfying.

i've felt some shakes lately but i can never tell if it's a truck going by - hopefully they'll stay lame like that.

who knows.. but it's such an enticing idea isn't it?  ;)

one could only hope that the continental plate (that now sits mostly under the ocean) would just sink further creating a 'new' coastline.
that or just have the plates tilt enough, along with global warming raising the seas, to have Nevada be beach front..

oh.. what a dream... sigh

My house sits about 25 miles East of the SA fault. I could be an original settler in the "new" Orange County!!!
