I’ve lived in California all my life (with the exception of a couple of years overseas), and don’t ever remember a series of earthquakes like this. Anyone else?

I lived through the San Fernando/Sylmar earthquake.. so I have seen much worse.
It looks like we are ‘ok’ since the fault(s) near us are moving fairly easily. I would worry about the Los Angeles basin. There have been some quakes north of Los Angeles and quakes in the Imperial valley down to Baja. The only part that is not really moving is LA. That means pressure is building up over there. Topping it off, the fault-line takes a turn (more like S-bend) through LA. This means that it doesn’t want to ‘slip’ as easily as where the faultline is straight.
