Unfortunalty the more earthquakes we have the less likely we are to have "the big one" as each earth quake is the releasing of built up pressure.

Yeah wouldn't many small earthquakes cause faults to settle and confer to more of a stable state. Thus this is might be good for Cali. Dont know, just an idea.

Think of it as air pressure, You let all the air out at once in a big pop, or lots of little puffs. Lots of little earthquakes lessen the change (but don't necessarily eliminate) the chance of "the big one"
