there was some sensationof movement in San Francisco.We have not had a major quake in the East Bay--one that really did major damage--since the LomaPrieta Earthquake of 1989, which may have beenon convergent fault lines:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loma_Prieta_earthquakeLove to you, Sharon, and to all, and thank you for yourconcern,nP.S. Loma Prieta is old Portuguese for "Black (prieta)Earth (loma as in loam)" M.~
