Exclamation USGS Earthquake Database

I was having some fun with the Earthquake database at the USGS.

Downloaded data for all earthquakes from 1973 through March of this year...

Plotted them up in Excel. Look familiar? The Mid-Atlantic rift sticks out, as does the west coast of the Americas and Japan... not to mention the subduction zones of Indonesia through the Asian subcontinent.

OIC!
