Hi Chris and Don,

Finally I totally confused. I thought first it is related to energy released at the fault
to the tune of 32 times of every 1M increase. May be you both indicate that the size
of energy will create such a long and wide rupture along the fault. OK let it be.

Another question, according to Einstein 3r law every action there is equivalent and opposite
reaction. Imagine last Dec.26 quake was an action; there must be an equivalent reaction. Is it so?
If that is the case, whether March 28 2004 8.7M quake occurred to close to the previous location
was a reaction?

Does the new rupture created of about 42 meter high, 100 KMs wide and 1400 KMs length due to Dec.26
quake was settled or partially settled due to 8.7M quake? If not, naturally it may be settled to its
own position shortly. (See link - just for general information)

For the last 3 days and including today, I am unable to chased the quake due to intermittent
sunshine. With difficulty, I can say today some stress release pattern was noted. It is the main
drawback in this method.
