Seismogenic

Actually, the light up here is pretty freaking incredible right now.

Just remembered: Wasn't there talk of a Bay Area geoblogger/geotweeter pub night sometime this summer? What happened to that?

Today is the 25th anniversary of the devastating M8.0 Michoacan earthquake. http://bit.ly/dmBkN6

There's a guy doing pull-ups on the ceiling bars of this BART train.

I have one page left in this sketchbook. Suggest things for me to draw on it! I'll fit in as many of them as I can.

Holy crap, there is no line at House of Nanking. How is this even possible?

My paper's going to be printed in the February 2011 issue of the Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America! Woo! #sciwrite

Oh Transbay Tube, how you hurt my sinuses...

So we're getting diverted through Oakland because it's foggy in San Francisco. Sigh.

Using UN-style translation headset things for an English and Spanish session on the El Mayor-Cucapah earthquake. Very cool! #scec2010

Got pinned by my poster and didn't get to see many others. I guess that's a good problem to have, though! #scec2010

Just heard a really exciting talk on the Sierra El Mayor-Cucapah earthquake surface rupture, geometry, and inferred dynamics. #scec2010

I've been walking around the conference hotel wearing no shoes, just because I know nobody's going to care at this particular meeting.

In a room full of structural engineers for a session on tall building response to earthquake ground motion. #scec2010

I'm bummed there's no SCEC field trip this year, but I finally get to go to the Southern San Andreas Fault workshop, at least. #scec2010

Anyone else at the Southern California Earthquake Center meeting in Palm Springs? #scec2010

Holy crap. United just paged a passenger Watson and a passenger Holmes. (Or that's sure what it sounded like...)

Why is there jackhammering going on outside at 11 PM? Hopefully not gas line-related...

Ah yes, the traditional Finding Of The Typo AFTER the Printing Of The Poster.

Dammit, I probably can't give blood because of I recently got a tattoo. Crap crap crap! (Since I know someone will ask, it's a seismogram.)

Poster layout is finished! Tomorrow: wrangling the printer.

Argh, this computer has a REALLY OLD version of Illustrator.

Awyeah, citin' a paper from 1939 on my SCEC poster.
