The link below is interesting about the quake history of this fault.:
http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-32472310
"In a sadly prescient turn of events, Laurent Bollinger, from the CEA research agency in France, and his colleagues, uncovered the historical pattern of earthquakes during fieldwork in Nepal last month, and anticipated a major earthquake in exactly the location where Saturday's big tremor has taken place. "
The aftershocks and an intensity map make it look like the quake ruptured to right beneath Kathmandu. A video on CNN.com shows the ground motion in Kathmandu, with the CNN person spouting pure nonsense about the motion. This pisses me off every time they have someone at CNN (or elsewhere) doing this.
