Tell me about it. http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Maps/120-40_full.html

Look back in the history a little ways and you'll see some pretty good shaking. There's been literally THOUSANDS of tremors here in the last four months since they started.

I read an article a couple of years ago about some geologists that were predicting earth quake areas by following the patterns of earth quakes. They noted that the quakes seem to happen in one region and then another region a short time later. They were able to predict a region for an earth quake and time frames of a few months. It all had to do with plate movement. Don't remember where or when I read it though.
