thank you karen and edina, this is what it means to be in a group and work as a team. i will be refining it over the next couple of days. yesterday was basically a trail run and individuals are starting to see them. it's part of the timeline but more importantly they will be able to see the split that's coming to earth's crust. thank the both of you.

This is great Joe, thank you!
Hey you can still put the images/maps inside this blog if you want; it will not affect main page loading speed. Being inside one blog file saves file storage space too; (and will be easier to manage, locate, and archive as well)!

Joe, you should be able to get the equivalent of @ 2 sheets of paper in this blog, (more or less depending on the image file sizes/types). If you run out of space, the page will turn a light pinkish color; if it does, just delete the last image you added (or any other image). Then just do another blog for that day (i.e. page 2). And please feel free to still do a separtate blog to highlight the Large Quakes IF YOU WAT TO.

Joe, let me/someone know if you need any help using the "Edit Discussion" feature, or adding additional images/maps, etc.

FYI: the blog capacity is 40,000 characters; thats equivalent to @3 (8.5x11) pages of typed text (10 pts). Images files are typically at least 3 times larger than text files when covering the same amount of area (depending on file types/size, and compression ratios, etc.)

Thanks Joe, good info, and good summary

I wonder if you might space at the end of each quake, just after you comma, so they sit below each other like a list, this may help the eye to scan the pattern easier. Say hi to jeanette, e
