I'm not asking you to shut up, I'm asking the contrary. Just more info. You have some good insights it seems, just provide an explanation for why you think these things. I'm trying to learn from you, nothing you say will I challenge, I read these boards strictly to see what others are thinking. I'm also confused because when clicking the Recent quakes in CA map, I see no activity in the LA area, so I don't know what foreshocks for the Santa Monica area you are referring to.
