Unfortunately there are those who hopes in technology far surpass the reality (I'm still waiting for my flying car). For the record, we are talking about a displacement on the TECTONIC scale over a length of probably several hundred kilometers laterally and miles deep over a fault plane surface of thousands of square miles (at least). We cannot yet predict times and locations for earthquakes, let alone identify where to drill a boring to some how 'relieve the pressure'.
And even if we could do something like that, what would be the consequences. Messing with nature is never a good idea, it will always have the final word.
