OK. I was just repeating the postulation for peer review ;)
I generally work on dimensions in feet and inches, not miles.
Thanks for that info.
As a BTW-A gent I work with lives within a few miles of the epicenter, and he stated that there was a sharp vertical component, with very little horizontal. Since it is in the same area as the Northridge 94 event, is this a similar event, with the vertical component being more substantial than the horizontal component?
Oh, and Mike, could you explain the beach ball tensor a little better than USGS.
I have read it, but my head (which usually is great at spatial perception) can't seem to translate the planes and orientation with fault movement.
Thanks in advance.
