Software license not working, so can not learn to import earthquake nodal planes into 3D fault model (Santa Monica Bay area). Frustrating, so will waste some time with a volcano, Piton de la Fournaise. First, you have to guess where this volcano is. It was featured on the French television news last night-as its lava flows first reached the sea. Hints: it is 8:15 PM eastern and the last video capture (after 1:00 UT 17th) showed a glow of the sunrise on the horizon. The footage was very spectacular (and my wife had bought me 2 Kilauea (videos that we watched the other week). I'm due to hop on a plane and visit an erupting volcano-have seen Kilauea, Etna, St Helens, Stromboli (and in passing, several of the Cascades volcanos). Etna last year with 1000 m lava fountains from the summit would have been worthwhile.

OK, so this is an earthquake site: they show some old seismograph records on the link below: but text is in French (which I read). Chris
