The "bottle up" notion is the part of my explanation I'm least comfortable with. As you say, waves don't bottle up, they move. In his FAQ, dutch describes the effect as a pressure build-up rather than wave movement. E.g.:
What is the sequence of movement for West Coast USA? What are the warning signs of a coming earthquake along the West coast of the United States.The signs of a coming earthquake off the West coast of the United States are obvious once you know what to look for.
1st : As pressure builds along the West coast of the US (coming from the Pacific Plate), the western portion of the United States (California, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Washington, and Oregon) will begin seeing swarms of smaller earthquakes (M1.0 to M4.0) occur at multiple ancient volcanic magma chambers interior to the coast.
After the magma chambers are struck, the pressure reaches upwards to the next weakest point it can find to release at. Usually this means the fracking, deep oil drilling, geothermal, and other man made penetrations into the crust are struck (deep perforations in the solid plate).

What he’s saying in simple terms is..
1. Buy food
2. Buy more food
3. Store water
4. Store more water
5. Store even more water
6. Get a TON of toilet paper, mebee some instant coffee
Petey :D
I idea that drilling is affecting the crust and earthquakes is enviro-commie BS.
