On the USGS quakes page:

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Quakes/quakes_all.html

I picked “MAP” to the left of the event I wanted to sew, which brought up a large area map with colored squares showing where the recent quakes in that region had been.

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Maps/10/240_35.php

I clicked on the square that indicated the epicenter of the quake I wanted to know about, which pulled up the details page for that quake.

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Quakes/ci10410337.php

There are tabs on the details page, and one of them is this “Maps” tab, which has nine different maps displaying the quake data in various forms.

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Quakes/ci10410337.php#maps

One of the maps available pulls up a Google Map with a marker for the epicenter at the relevant Lat/Long coordinates.

At that point, all I did was zoom all the way in to the “street” level, and copy/paste the page link from the little “Link” icon located at the top, right corner of the map. [Right-click and “Copy Shortcut” (or “Copy Link Location” for Firefox), then “Paste” into the your HTML-formatted Post as usual.] It’s a cool little feature Google has provided to allow users a way to easily give others an identical map view to look at; sorta keeps everyone “on the same page”, in a virtual sense.

I use it whenever I need to endure that someone else in cyberspace sees the same map that I saw.

Thanks for the info. I live on the shores Humboldt Bay Ca the earthquake capital of Calif where we had three 7. shakers in less than 24 hours back in 92 I believe. The “Triple Junction” is just off shore and I am on a first name basis with Prof Lori Dengler at HSU. We are due for a 9+ as it occurs every 200 years or so and some of our property is in the liquefaction zone...
