Meet reality and what they will do what they do …

Between the Imperial Valley’s failure as a Hollywood resort draw and
the backlog of Mexican sewage and farm runoff still being deposited on
the shores of the Salton Sea, we think it’s safe to say that it’s very
likely the environs in this vicinity may not exactly be the most
fortunate stretch of land in the country. Possibly.
Now the same geophysicists who’ve been holding “the Big One” out in
front of our salivating mouths for the past however many decades are
saying that Imperial Valley is already leading the state into its
eventual (fingers crossed) grave. Nice one, Poseidon.
To get a complete picture of the ever-imminent disaster that will
rid us of LA for good, scientists have been required to plumb the
depths of the Salton Sea, conveniently located at the southernmost end
of the San Andreas fault. Traditional techniques long failed to the
find the underwater fault lines splintering off the San Andreas, but by
measuring the reflections of sound off the 200-foot-deep lake bed,
geophysicists at UC San Diego discovered around 17 mini-faults angled
toward the mainline. The researchers propose that the San Andreas and
way underrated Imperial fault are literally pulling apart the Salton
Sea’s crust like greedy brats at a pizza party. When the surface gives
into either of their pulls, rather than just shifting in one of their
directions it slips deeper into the basin.
While this adds an unneeded extra layer of shit to the lives of the
Sea’s and nearby Slab City’s assorted denizens, it does provide a
helpful opportunity to quake-watchers. Tremor-inducing activity
activity occurs deep within the bowels of the earth, just above hell,
which makes Imperial Valley’s incredible shrinking lake a potential
window to the seismic events leading up to the ultimate demise of
California. Science!
