I agree, not to worry, also, tremors being related to larger ones is still shakey science at best.
People always predict the big one. I have never understood why. If someone can pick the month, I would be impressed; but predicting a general "big one" is not a stretch, we are on the pacific Ring of Fire. Odds are always in their favor
