I did not go to the link but did look at the map. They still have a huge bull's-eye hazard around New Madrid; this is questionable. They have an area of hazard in Oklahoma, but not where most of the recent, presumably induced quakes have been. The actual hazard is likely where the quakes are now occurring, including for larger quakes (larger than the 4s that have been occurring).

And, what's with the thin little arcing line in Alaska along the Denali fault? It's a narrow band of high hazard that cuts through low hazard areas? Like the shaking drops off that much in so little distance from such a fault capable of large quakes? "Yeah, you're 20 miles from the fault and screwed, but I'm 30 so I'm ok." errrrr.....
