I'm in Silicon Valley. The San Andreas fault is a few miles from here. A map of the bay area will show a dozen major faults. A neighborhood map may have several smaller lines. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/events/1906calif/virtualtour/bayarea .php The USGS has good GPS receivers sprinkled around the area. You can see occasional antenna domes on a post alongside the highway. http://www.quake.geo.berkeley.edu/usgs-gps/ (Time sink warning.) The fault moves about as fast as your fingernails grow, an inch per year. That's one side relative to the other. I don't know how fast the pair is moving. -- These are my opinions. I hate spam. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
