I wrote this article (except 5 words) in March 2010 on Wikinfo based on the book, A Crack in the Edge of the World: America and the Great California Earthquake of 1906 by Simon Winchester. --Charles Marean, Jr 23:34, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

It does not mention how strong this quake was on the Richter scale and seems a bit imprecise about the epicenter. "In the Pacfic Ocean" is somewhat vague. How far from SF, and in what direction? Sandy Harris 00:48, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
