  Thanks. A pet peeve of mine is when a geography-focused article doesn't include a map.

    Also when earthquake articles make no mention of the magnitude of them. 2000 magnitude 1 quakes is way, way different than just a few magnitude 5 quakes.

      Quite literally a magnitude 5 is 10000x the strength of mag 1!

        Absolutely. Many people don't realize that earthquakes are measured using an exponential scale. A magnitude 8 quake is 10x stronger than a magnitude 7.

  This setting at Earthquakes USGS also shows the quake group being discussed. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?extent=31.27319,-186.67969&extent=67.87318,-107.92969&range=month&magnitude=all&settings=true https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?extent=31.27319... Major collection from central Alaska near Denali National Park down the peninsula and fairly large group heading up California.
