My dad sent me a link to a story that falls in the range of "things a civil engineer might not normally worry about" - an analysis that suggests the major earthquake in China last year was triggered by the additional weight of water behind a new dam. 
The story is in an on-line USA-Today blog called "ScienceFair".  It refers to a new article the in the journal "Science", which is in the FSU Dirac Science Library if it is not in our TCC library.  A quick search indicates it is in the 16 January 2009 issue, on page 322.  The article is only available to subscribers or at a library.
