 ASC - Terminology
Earthquakes with magnitude of about 2.0 or less are usually call microearthquakes; they are not commonly felt by people and are generally recorded only on local seismographs.
The magnitude of an earthquake is determined from the logarithm of the amplitude of waves recorded by seismographs.
Although all earthquakes associated with active volcanoes are ultimately related to volcanic processes, Volcanic earthquakes are directly associated with magma movement, while tectonic earthquakes occur in zones separated from the principal areas of magma movement.

The devastating megathrust earthquake of December 26th, 2004 occurred on the interface of the India and Burma plates and was caused by the release of stresses that develop as the India plate subducts beneath the overriding Burma plate.
The earthquake locations and magnitudes cited in these bulletins are very preliminary, and may disagree with the more accuate USGS locations and magnitudes computed using more extensive data sets.

No reports of damage or casualties have been received at this time; however, this earthquake may have caused substantial damage and casualties due to its location and size.
This map shows the predicted (theoretical) travel times, in minutes, of the compressional (P) wave from the earthquake location to points around the globe.
The heavy black lines shown are the approximate distances to the P-wave shadow zone (103 to 120 degrees).

GILROY, California (CNN) -- A moderate earthquake -- followed by five aftershocks -- shook the San Francisco Bay area Monday night, according to the U.S. Geological Survey's National Earthquake Information Center.
The earthquake rattled fans at two nationally-televised sporting events: A National Hockey League playoff match between Colorado and San Jose, and a National League baseball game between Atlanta and San Francisco, gaining mention on both broadcasts.

Second, the NEIC collects and provides to scientists and to the public an extensive seismic database that serves as a solid foundation for scientific research, principally through the operation of modern digital national and global seismograph networks and through cooperative international agreements.
First, the NEIC determines the location and size of all destructive earthquakes that occur worldwide.
Third, the NEIC pursues an active research program to improve its ability to locate earthquakes and to understand the earthquake mechanism."

There were moderate earthquakes in 1881, 1901, 1922, 1934, and 1966 at Parkfield that prompted the Parkfield earthquake prediction experiment with a nominal return date of a M6 event of 1985.
This event was somewhat different it seems than the 1934 and 1966 events in that its epicenter and I think foreshocks were about 20 km further south than in the past events.
