Another big quake, closer to home

Via usgs.gov: A magnitude 6.7 earthquake IN GULF OF CALIFORNIA has occurred at:
28.10N 112.07W Depth 10km Wed Jan 4 08:32:31 2006 UTC. [Link] According to the San Jose Mercury-News, the quake is unlikely to have caused significant damage because there are few people where it was most severe. Interesting to check out quake activity for the North American Region over the last week – one other mag 6 quake farther south, near Panama, with a few mag 5s clustered nearby.
