The Hayward fault has had a couple of jolts in recent days. The southern San Andreas had several events in the past few days.

Seismologists are worried the recent earthquake swarm at the Salton Sea will temporarily increase the likelihood of a major quake in Southern California.

CBS in San Francisco:

PIEDMONT (CBS SF) — Mother Nature jolted East Bay residents out of their beds for a second straight day as a 3.5 magnitude earthquake struck the Hayward Fault near Piedmont, authorities said.

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the temblor struck at 6:11 a.m. 3 miles north of Piedmont. Nearly in the same spot as Wednesday’s 3.4 magnitude quake that struck near Tunnel Road and Highway 13.

The quake was felt most strongly in Berkeley and Oakland, but residents in San Francisco also reported a strong jolt.

BART shut down trains for a short time to inspect its tracks for damage. The transit agency said to expect 10-20 minute delays.

There were no reports of injuries of damage.

On the KPIX 5 Facebook page, several local residents said the quake jolted them awake.

Your post reminded of my college, California State University, Hayward. That was a few lifetimes ago, but it was a small school when I attended. We had only about 3,000 students. I think they now have over 13,000 students. It was a time when our school was known for Accounting grads, and even I got four job offers before I even graduated. I went to work for Florsheim Shoe Company, because they offered me the Western Territory that covered the seven western states, and an expense account. It was the first time in my life, I stayed at first class hotels, and wore Florsheim Shoes, some of the best our country had to offer. When we were kids, we wore Gallen Camp.

I used to wear Florheim Chukka Boots almost exclusively in the field, unless we were in deep drilling muds. They were tough and werent like I was wearing divers boots . I could walk well all day in them.

So many of the hunting and "hiking" boots are so damn heavy you conk out from foot and leg fatigue after a few hours. My militqry boots were not Florsheims and they were so damn hevy that Id have a pair of
golf sneaks if I was takin some new recruits on sapper training
