 One of California's most active seismic zones of the 1970s is rumbling again, causing concern among scientists who study and residents who live in the fault-strewn desert region. A series of earthquakes - the strongest with a magnitude of 5.1 on Thursday evening - are shaking near the southeast shore of the Salton Sea, about 86 miles from Palm Springs. The earthquake swarm between the San Andreas and Imperial faults is turning heads among researchers in Pasadena. But they stopped short of saying the rumbling temblors are an indication of something greater on the way. Donna Dearmore, 64, and a 61-year resident of Niland, says people there think the swarm could be significant. "From what we hear this is supposed to be a good one," Dearmore said. "But we have heard that most of my life around here."
