Dear Radsafe:
 
     From:    _jpreisig at aol.com_ (mailto:jpreisig at aol.com)     .
 
 
     Hmmmmmm,
 
 
           Yes, I am  familiar with the various earthquake types --- my PhD 
is in  geophysics/seismology/
     Very Long Baseline Interferometry.  Hope the  details about 
strike-slip versus subduction
     earthquakes was instructive for other members of  the list.
 
 
     Want to see earthquake epicenters and scientific  details about them 
--- do a google search on
 
     usgs   and look for the global plot of  Earthquake seismicity.  The 
plot and associated 
     earthquake list are updated frequently.
 
           I hear stories  via the NEWS that North Korea is planning an 
underground nuclear device
     test soon???  You might be able to see such  an event in the USGS 
earthquake list.
 
 
           Have a good  week!!!     Regards,   Joseph R. (Joe)  Preisig, PhD
