What does the future bring?

Today a friend of mine in an online group was showing pictures of the Turkey earthquake…

Turkey train track. Feb 8, 2023.

And I began thinking about California. I moved from the San Francisco Bay Area to Texas about 3 years ago.

I used to feel small tremors of earthquakes almost daily when I lived there.

In California people always think about earthquakes. And some are afraid that the grand San Francisco earthquake could happen again.

And today my friend and I talked about the possibility of a new big earthquake in that area. He then remembered the city of Point Reyes.

I was curious to know more about what happened there, so I went to ChatGPT for help.

My question:

What is the connection of Point Reyes with earthquakes?

ChatGPT:

Point Reyes is located in a seismically active region and has a history of earthquakes. The Point Reyes Peninsula lies at the intersection of the San Andreas Fault and the Hayward Fault, two of the most significant faults in California.
