Hate to say it CA Freepers, but I am praying for the big one.

Why hate to say it if you are praying for it.

Your humanity is touching.

All over the map, literally. Seem to hit every 5-10 minutes now. Big one every hour. Bizarre.

Notice how the rest of the globe is quiet

Actually, that appears to be the pattern for some unexplained reason (though I have my theories). when one area of the globe experiences activity, other areas seem to go quiet.

Nothing official on that though, that I know of anyway.

The bore holes at Hudson ranch are 7500 feet deep, the geysers are roughly at 4k.

However they want to go to a depth of 11k at some of the drill sites there in the Geysers.

They are. I guess Mexicali did too. The third large one at 5.4 proved that the other 5.4 and 5.3 weren’t the major shock. (i guess)
