Art Bell will eat this up with a spoon. He loves this under the earth stuff.

PARKFIELD, Calif. - Geologists who were drilling a borehole into the San Andreas Fault to better understand the physics of earthquakes have hit a seismically active section of the fault for the first time.
Shortly after the drill probe reached the active area, California began slowly sliding west and southwest. As San Francisco plopped into the Bay, a tsumani formed that has overtaken the coast of Japan. Mexico sunk without a trace.

I have to admit the idea of subterranean seismographs and collecting real 3-D data sounds very exciting!

Borehole drilling in California?
This is not news.

Is this another one of Bush's faults?
Stupid jokes aside (directly above, ahem)
if one were to capitalize the the word in question, and write it Temblors, then one could be referring to a small mountain range some miles East of Parkfield, adjacent also to the Southern San Joaquin Valley's, West side. The Temblors are not much in the way of mountain ranges, and most of it---
is as near dry as a bone.

Southeast of Parkfield would be more precise.
If one refers to the map in this post, they lay
right under the red line beginning again to the SE of
Parkfield, ranging S to Hwy 166 or thereabouts.
