text:  If you're near a fault that's been known to creep, it may suddenly increase its creep rate, as the Hayward fault has been known to do now since Christmas time. It's been creeping 30 times faster than it was for the previous 30 years. Yeah, I heard that. And here's the perfect place for this fax. Jim, Art, my house sits actually directly on the Hayward fault. I was wondering if you could ask Mr. Birkeland if he thinks any movement might occur on this particular fault. Thanks.
