Jeff, yes I felt it while @ Stoneridge today. People looked all funny and didn't realize what it was while I immediately jumped into a doorway. The one later on I had just left Alcosta 76 and was back at the shop.

It's definitely time for a big one again.

Isn't it better to have a ton of mini ones and doesn't that mean the pressure is being released as opposed to building up for a big one?

There's a whole debate I could go into but it's best kept offline and with some tinfoil at the ready.

Basically AFAIK after having been @ Candlestick in '89 and felt all the little one's we had around it I don't prescribe to any pattern theories.

I will say one has to wonder about fracking, or should I say the cracking of the egg opposite of the standarized fault paths and how it could possibly play into a global tectonic change.

Lately in the Tri-Cities Area it's been pretty quiet overall, today got me back.

We've been feeling them. Around 5 miles from the epicenters, near Dublin HS just south of San Ramon. It's sure a different feeling being so close. These have been short, but powerful single waves that are over quick.

I clearly felt the 2.9 and today's 3.4. You couldn't possibly miss it unless you're in a car or running or something. I've been at work for the others.
