It is my understanding that for
each and every EQ there exists the
chance for after shocks.
In most cases those aftershocks are smaller.
But in rare cases the quake in question may be
a Foreshock for a bigger aftershock.
Possibly it is a nebulous or vague warning.
Since lots of people are near LA and
Like Riverside/ San Bernardino area is a major stress point
that has been building for quite awhile.
Unless I was rich like Mr. Gates, I would not
want to live in the High Risk Eq areas.
or Tornado areas or near the coast
of any ocean or big lake.
Or... major national defense related industry :-)

Did any of you hear about the hiker that fell
into St mount Helens Crater ?
He ,supposedly, fell over 1000ft ??
Possibly a Geologist ??
