Hi Canie. They are saying that “A possible explanation for the conflicting geodetic and geologic data is that the region of shortening represents the contractile side of a slowly east-propagating deformation pulse generated by the 1915 Pleasant Valley and 1954 Dixie Valley and Fairview Peak earthquakes”

What if a pulse from a large quake removed from this region started this and those large quakes in turn triggered the 1915 Pleasant Valley, 1954 Dixie Valley and Fairview Peak quakes and the force causing the shortening of the contractile side is tectonic and not a slow moving pulse? You may have a better understanding of this then I do, but what if that area is a block and it is a clockwise rotation much like the San Gabriel Mountains in the Los Angeles basin. Could this be possible? Take Care…Don in creepy town.
