- Has anyone else noticed the illustration on p 423 of the current _SN_?
-
- It's cribbed from the 11/20 issue of _Science_, but the picture
- and caption caught my eye -- to quote,
-
- "The Landers quake and its aftershocks (which form a white lambda
- shape near the center of the image) have increased stress on sections
- of the San Andreas fault . . . pink areas show reduced stress."
-
- And by golly, there it is, white on pink, covering So Cal from
- Barstow well past Palm Springs. Really quite purty.
