I just listened to a interview with Kate Hutton - she did say it was a thrust quake and not on the san andreas...

Then one bright newscaster said: I'm Joe Public - this is the third earthquake in a week - as a scientist, what do you say to me? Should I be worried?

She answered - no, don't be worried, but take this as an opportunity to make sure you have your earthquake plans and kit together and be prepared.

Very good answer!
