Hi All,

I see today brought another earthquake in the same area as the list before the Olympia 2/28/01 event. Of late there have been a number of quakes in the area of today's and a little south of that location.

2001/08/05 11:11:44 50.53N 129.72W 10.0 4.5 A VANCOUVER ISL

I find this a curiosity as generally I would have thought after the subduction quake in February this area would have slowed down in movement, however, its not that way at all. So why is it still active? What does it mean?

A. There will be more activity in the State of Washington?

B. There will be activity north of the State of Washington in BC?

C. Say Hello Yellow Knife, the push to shove is coming your way?

D. The phenomena is not discernable and thus one cannot make heads or tails of it.

Feedback welcome. Please let me know which item A thru D you might support, or list one of your own. I think this is worthy of a bit of discussion.

Thanks....Petra
