anyway, many smaller quakes is a good thing, it releases the pressure in smaller bursts.

Hmm looks like they're mainly at the corner of the Juan De Fuca plate and the Gorda plate, right were it changes from a transform boundary to a subduction zone. Pretty regularly tectonically active area, I'd assume.

It is no joke for us, this is a model of the tsunami waves generated by the Oregon earthquake of 1700.

I always find it interesting how many things happen with 300 500 150,000 etc frequencies that we essentially assume will never happen again and do not think about all that much.

When you take everything together -- something will hit somewhere sometime.

You could wake up tomorrow and see 2 suns in the sky in the case of betelgeuse going supernova.

It is all ok, cause when the big island avalanche occurs, then... g'bye West Coast....

It's not "if" but when large pieces of the Hawaiian Islands will slip into the ocean, the entire Pacific Rim will be smashed by the resulting tsunamis. In New South Wales, Australia, and the west coast of the United States there is geological evidence that parts of these coasts was scoured by a Hawaii generated tsunami over 100,000 years ago. The postulated wave started out about a 1/2 mile high in Hawaii.
