After scoffing for years, it now looks like the mainstream is trying to pirate Walter Brown's explanation http://www.newsdaily.com/stories/tre5bm4go-us-earthquake-tides/A study published in the journal Nature says these tremors beneath the San Andreas Fault could provide similar clues about earthquakes.
The researchers say the faint tug of the sun and the moon on the fault causes tremors well below the level where earthquakes occur.
The finding suggests that rock far underground is lubricated with pressurized water, allowing the rock to slip easily and weakening the fault.
"If you could go down there and push the rock with your hand you would cause a tremor," said researcher Amanda Thomas of the University of California, Berkeley. {bold added for your convenience} Playing catch-up once again. They ignored Mendel for quite a while as well, for the sake of maintaining faith.

That they are not to be violated but with his wrath?" - Thomas Jefferson

Got a better link on that one: http://newsfeedresearcher.com/data/articles_t52/tremors-fault-earthquakes.htmlhttp://www.labspaces.net/101293/Sun_and_moon_trigger_deep_tremors_on_San_Andreas_FaultAlso noteworthy is Berkeley's self-appointed status as some sort of evolutionism headquarters. It looks like they aspire to be the next talkdeceptions, only with a veneer of "authority". If they're pushing this, it's likely others will follow their lead. For example, see http://evolution.berkeley.edu/
