The entire state is at as much risk, but of course its always all about LA.
They’ll probably get extra money from the feds to deal with the earthquake like Hawaii had.
Puente Hills? They’re the Whittier Hills to those of us from Whittier.
“Seismologists have not determined which fault was responsible for Tuesday’s shaker”....
In other words....Which fault is at fault?
I see the word “thrust” in this story, and I also seem to recall it associated with the recent Chilean quakes.
Is this “Puente Hills” fault the same as the one in Chile?
Haiti. Chile. California. Earthquakes in diverse places.
Duh.
LA will get eaten for lunch someday.
This has been known forever.
And it will happen again and again and again as long as there are active faults in the area.
Did you see the name of the new fault?
. . . . get ready . . . .
Bush’s Fault!
Dear Big One:
Get it over with!

Seattle is due for their 300 year ~9.0 magnitude quake since the last one was in 1700CE.
Who will get hit first? L.A. or Seattle?
The quantified predictions are the equivalent of Global warming conjecture. There is no way the man knows what he said.
Being an incurable nerd, I got an app for my i phone called Quake Watch. The daily number of very small quakes in California are amazing. Responsible are a profusion of volcanic areas and fault zones which don’t necessarily affect each other.
