Ping: Capt. JG
Jon--
Just read a news blurb about the Hayward Fault. Seems it is prime for a major slip. Is there any talk about it out there, or are the media just starved for news? Max |
Capt. JG
Just got back from a couple of days sailing... We've known about the fault
for a long time, but I don't know what's new, since I've been away. What did they say? I believe it's due before the San Andreas. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Maxprop" wrote in message link.net...

We've known about the fault for a long time, but I don't know what's new, since I've been away. What did they say? I believe it's due before the San Andreas. The article dealt with a woman who lives on the fault--it runs through the street in front of her home--who is experiencing a lot of shifting and settling of her house. Cracks appear daily in the walls and ceilings and the doors don't work properly. The gate on her front fence is about 3" from the latch side, and the street is buckling out front. Some geologists were also quoted as saying that the Hayward is far more dangerous to the Bay Area than the San Andreas, and it could have lasting repercussions on the bay itself if it slips fully. They felt it was really ready to let go, and every day it doesn't slip is just building the pressure more greatly, leading to a more catastrophic quake. Doesn't sound good, but I'm not a geologist. That's why I asked if there is any current fear/talk of a really big quake along that fault. Max |

I didn't hear anything unusual in the last few weeks. I've always heard that
in the short term it could be more dangerous, but that the SA would probably be bigger. Who knows... we're all going to die someday anyway. :-) -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Maxprop" wrote in message .net... "Capt. JG" wrote in message ... "Maxprop" wrote in message link.net...

The homeowner wasn't complaining, rather she was amused by the changes occurring, and stated she was not going to leave the house under any circumstances. She's sort of like old Harry Truman, the owner of the Spirit Lake Lodge, now under a quarter mile of pyroclastic mud following the eruption of Mt. St. Helens. He doggedly refused to leave, stating that what would be would be. Que sera, sera. Since the last of the hurricanes hit Florida in the '04 season, there have been over half a million new home starts in the 'cane zones. I guess folks just aren't concerned about natural disasters.
