Yeah, I agree. I've visited the park in the Point Reyes area where you can
take the "Earthquake Trail". There, you'll see the offset fence posts and a
tree which was split by the strike-slip rupturing. I believe they still hold
the concept that the epicenter is around Olema. It seems that the USGS
mostly agrees with this but UC Berkeley tends to push for a 1906 epicenter
just offshore of Daly City. I cant seem to find any documentation that
discusses this to any detail.

Quake enthusiasts--
  The interest in 1906 event never goes away, especially with the centennial
approaching.  Olema is mentioned.  This is a "must see" site for anyone
--expecially us easterners--seeking the effects of faulting at the surface.
The National Park Service visitor center is just off Rt. 1 about 20 miles
north of Golden Gate Bridge.  The excursion getting there is a scenic
adventure in itself....
