I am distressed that he had to be notified.  This sort of signal should be
detected by the network itself.

I would suggest a *blind test*.  I challenge the various processing
groups to analyse this day's data sequentially to determine *when* the
movement occurred, and its magnitude.  If GPS is going to be useful
for ultra-long period seismology on scales of hours, it will have to
break the habit of one solution per day....

Playing the devil's advocate,

Kurt
