Thanks Bob, That is what I was afraid of. I also seen those few exceptions. Probably too much trouble for anything but exceptional events. Oh well.

I checked the current list of recent earthquakes and only found it the data listed on two events, the M 8.8 Chile, and the M 7.0 Ryukyu Islands. When listed you will find it under the Scientific & Technical tab, and it is called Seismicity Cross Section. I also checked most of the M 6.0 + listings on the 8-30 day list and did not find any with Seismicity Cross Section. I can remember this being listed much more often a few years ago than is currently done. The published focal mechanism is another source for the fault geometry at the point of rupture, but it does not give the overall long view that you obtain with Seismicity Cross Section.
