With several aftershocks...
...quake map shows the 'shakers' just a bit SE of Mexicali....5.8 initial - I'll bet it got their atterntion!
According to my clock...anytime is \'BAJA TIME\' & as Jimmy Buffett says,
\"It doesn\'t use numbers or moving hands It always just says now...\"

The area is known to be seismically active and is interconnected with the Southern end of the San Andreas fault. Now, we can look forward to renewed
interest in when the "big one" will hit Southern California
