I check area earthquake activity on a fairly regular basis and happened to notice this activity in Niland and commented to my wife about them. We have small ones on a semi regular basis and got rocked really well during the one that hit Calexico some years back. Even though the faults in the area aren't directly connected with the San Andreas, I recently read about how they are learning faults are more interconnected than once thought. I went through a major earthquake in 1952 in the small town of Tehachapi, CA. It devastated the town. If you're curious, do a seach on it. I'm glad we live in an area of few, local faults nearby and over a good base of bedrock.
