Hank asked:
If, for millions of years, the west side of the San Andreas fault has been moving northwesterly to the east side, should not the mountainous coastal land mass south of where the fault enters the sea (at Daly City) have formed a peninsula by now? (PS: for whoever answers this question, I will appreciate
your looking at my Geology question # 2, relative to the Alburqueque rift valley also). Thanks.
