I'm working in my new home office until the chemicals of a previous occupant are moved out of heartland wife's lab. The neighbors are having their roof (OK, shingles) replaced today. Could be noisy. Our rental house had shingles replaced a few weeks ago. Every house in the area is having its shingles replaced over the last month or so..so there is this noise of nail guns many days. This is because of the hail storm (and long-track tornado that briefly touched down nearby)...the hail was big enough to cause small leaks. This is the March 2006 storm that heartland wife enountered on her job interview. It took until September or so for people to get insurance payments for this, and I imagine there are not enough roofers to do all the roofs quickly...although they take one day to do a roof...
Freeze warning for tonight...

OK, back to mapping a blind thrust beneath/south of the Oak Ridge fault...whether it has been active in last 1 million years depends on how you interpret fault intersections...as a series of wedges...but as far as vertical motion of 5 million year old strata, it is the biggest fault in the middle of the Santa Barbara Channel....larger than the Oak Ridge fault.....farther west, the young (includes Holocene=legally active) slip jumps over to this fault, and I am trying to figure out how this happens...bears on how likely an earthquake that ruptures through is..Chris
