The workings of usenet. Somebody asks a question and then everybody
acts like the person was presenting something as fact.
Okay, here is the original request on where to find information from
Brian:

Then we get the following from John. I have to admit that it was a
good reply on the how-to's in the scientific world. :-)

From here on it goes *downhill*

Linc, don't you think Brian may have been intending to do a little
research when he was asking for the data?

And then we get this from one of the main abusers of this group
who totally forgets (or I should say conveniently forgets) that this
is why Brian was asking on where to find information on whale
beachings.
We can always count on the timberwoof to woof around.

I think there is a difference between noticing something that a person
wants to research and making a fairly extraordinary claim.
And then on a side note, we can always count on sly remark from Stan:

Seismicity Report for Northern California,
the Nation, and the World for the week of
January 2 - 8, 1996
Stephen R. Walter
U.S. Geological Survey
345 Middlefield Rd. MS-977, Menlo Park, CA 94025
San Francisco Bay Area
Activity remained light last week. During the seven-day period ending at
midnight on Wednesday, January 8, 1997 the U.S. Geological Survey office
in Menlo Park recorded 20 earthquakes of magnitude one (M1) and greater
within the San Francisco Bay area shown in Figure 1. Three were as large
as M2. This total compares to 20 earthquakes during the prior seven-day
period (December 26 - January 1), six of which were as large as M2.
The largest earthquakes in the area were a pair of M2.7 events, neither
of which was reported to have been felt. The first occurred last Thursday
evening on the central Calaveras fault just east of San Jose (#1/1). This
area sees regular activity at the M2-4 level; the largest recent
earthquake was a M4.7 just last May. The second M2.7 occurred late
Monday evening on the San Andreas about eight miles southwest of Hollister
(#3/1).
Finally, a minor earthquake occurred Saturday beneath the central San
Joaquin Valley about nine miles southwest of Stockton (#2/1).
Northern & Central California
A M3.5 occurred Sunday evening on the southern Maacama fault about
eight miles southwest of Lakeport and was felt by people in the epicentral
area (#1/2). Aside from a trio of M2's at the Geysers, the only other
notable event in the Coast Ranges was a M2.0 Wednesday morning about
eleven miles northwest of Cloverdale (#7/2).
To the north the Cape Mendocino area remained relatively quiet though
the largest earthquake in the region occurred Monday in the offshore Gorda
Plate about 60 miles northwest of Ferndale (#4/2). A pair of M2's on
Tuesday on the Mendocino fracture zone, the first a M2.9 that occurred
about 55 miles off the coast, the second a M2.8 just ten miles west of the
coast (#5/2). Activity onshore was limited to a M2.1 that, at a depth of
about 31 km, occurred along the interface of the subducting Gorda Plate
with the base of the North American Plate (#3/2).
The eastern Sierra Nevada range saw a trio of M2's on Sunday about 18
miles north of Truckee (#2/2) and a M2.9 Wednesday evening about six miles
east of Markleeville (#8/2).
Central California experienced nothing stronger than a M2.5 on the
creeping segment of the San Andreas about five miles northwest of the
Pinnacles National Monument (#6/2).
Long Valley Caldera
The Long Valley area remained quiet during the past week with only one
earthquake as large as M2 in the caldera and none in the Sierra Nevada
terrane south of the caldera. The lone M2 event occurred Tuesday morning
about one miles southwest of Mammoth Lakes and was apparently not felt
locally, unsurprising given a magnitude of only M2.4 (#1/3).
USA Seismicity (December 30 - January 7)
The National Earthquake Information Center reported a M3.7 last
Wednesday just north of Yakima, Washington (#1/4) followed the next day by
a M2.9 along the Washington-Oregon border just southeast of Walla Walla
(#2/4). Other domestic earthquakes of note include a M3.5 on the Kenai
Peninsula of southern Alaska that was felt at Moose Pass and Seward,
Alaska (#3/5) and a pair of M3-4 events in the Coso area of southern
California (#3/4).
The Planet Earth (December 30 - January 7)
The largest earthquakes on the planet were a pair of M5.6 events. The
first occurred in remote eastern Siberia and apparently produced no
significant damage (#4/5). The second, along the Nepal-India border,
produced extensive damage in the Khalanga Bassar area and was felt
strongly in much of western Nepal (#5/5). Other moderate earthquakes of
note include a M5.3 along the northern mid-Atlantic Ridge (#1/5) and a
M5.3 in northern Columbia (#2/5).
