Lots of people here in Chiang mai build houses that are earth quake resistant. The mae chan line runs just outside Sankhampaeng district. For the town of Chiang mai about 50 ks away. Further down it runs nearly straight through Lamphun. I live about 80 k from Sankhampaeng and have an earthquake resistant house. By the way: in the Mae Khong delta is the Tha Khaek fault, capable of the same destructive quakes. In countries like these one should always be prepared. Better safe than sorry. 

 

You: Somchai, you did build my house using earthquake resistant technology, didn't you?

Somchai to friend (in Thai): What is an earthquake?

Friend to Somchai: Just say yes, no poplem. Don't say no, he will get crazy.

Somchai to you: Yes, no poplem. Very strong. 

 

:sorry:

Saying there are many “blind” faults under the earth which cannot be detected or their locations established by seismologists.

 

With all due respect, if seismologists cannot detect "blind" faults then HOW DO THEY KNOW THEY'RE THERE?

 

ESP?????

 

Logic, obviously not this researchers strong suit. ?
