Do these selp-proclaimed experts get paid extra for saying shit that's meant to have us shitting our drawers? Certainly seems like it. Anyway, they're now saying that stress levels beneath Southern California’s two most dangerous fault systems have climbed to their highest in at least 1,000 years, prompting fresh concerns that the long-feared “Big One” may be drawing closer.
Okay - stop right there. that's why I'm skeptical of statements like that. How the fuck could they possible know what those 'stress levels' were in 1126AD? It's simple - they can't - but that doesn't stop them from making bold-faced statements like that and expecting us to accept it just because they know a little bit more than we do about this stuff.
The meant-to-be alarming findings come from a new study from the AGU Journal examining the San Andreas and San Jacinto fault systems, in which researchers found that tectonic stress - they say - has reached levels not seen in a millennium. As if somebody a thousand years ago had that data and knew what to do with it. The people around that long ago barely knew how to make fire, ferfucksake. Juss' sayin'.

When this happens it will take 30 days for LA to notice.
