Downloaded EQuake3D and the Texas 3.8 is there, but for some reason this program isn’t showing anything in Europe. What do I need ?

No temblor greater than a magnitude 8 is ever likely in California, say scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey in Menlo Park.
Menlo Park is in SF- this is wishful and dangerous thinking. But what do journalists care? Let's feel good and pretend California as special powers protecting it. The 1906 quake is estimated as an 8 btw.

Yeah, I'll trust the seismic advice of the paper whose political advice included endorsing Gavin Newsom.

God created the world....including our little planet...
......If Japan wasn't a wake-up call, I don't know what is.
Get your hearts ready with God, folks!
....destruction only takes a few minutes...then it's over....and too late!
I even heard Frank Luntz on Cavuto last night say....'but by the Grace of God there go I'--(or our nation)....in referring to the tragedy of the Japan quake.
Cavuto said....'those are profound words'.....
I grew up hearing & understanding those words......and believe them even more fully now.

I was 8 miles from the Landers, but it was ONLY a 7.4!

Thanks - interesting collection of earthquakes ... right where you said they were... Here's the link to the earthquake program I'm using - it's free - a three dimensional earth with (almost) all the information... and it's beautiful.

If the volcano in Yellowstone ever goes off, we can put our head between our legs and kiss our butts goodby...
So called experts than say a earthquake like Japan cannot happen in California should be told to shut their mouths. No one can predict the size or place of such events, they just think they can...The earth doesn't read the papers..

You lived through some bad ones... Florida with our hurricanes is starting to look good - well, until the season starts again... Glad you’re still with us, Conservative3Ever.

"But the next big quake in the Bay Area on either the San Andreas or the Hayward will be a $200 billion disaster," warned Thomas M. Brocher, who leads the USGS region's efforts at preparedness for the next Big One. I used to think of "the big one" in California as a disaster beyond imagining in all respects. Thanks to Obama/Pelosi/Reid, I now see the dollar cost as a small fraction of Stimulus, TARP, ObamaCare, or any of a number of other man induced disasters, if the $200B number is anywhere near the real cost of the big one. The loss of life could be horrendous, but the financial impact would be minor compared with a true American catastrophe:
