Here is the text of the Caltech weekly report. It accompanies a postscript
map that I can't or won't re-post because it's a very big file. You can
ftp the text and map from seismo.gps.caltech.edu under successive
directories pub and ca.earthquakes. 
I've edited the text lightly, but the information is unaffected.

This document is a commentary on current seismic activity.  The 
earthquakes discussed have been detected and processed 
automatically.  All epicenters and magnitudes have been reviewed 
to exclude obvious blunders; however, they must still be 
considered preliminary.  For further information, please contact 
the authors or the Caltech Public Relations Office at (818) 356-6326.

--------------------------------
Aftershocks of the Landers earthquake continued in the seven days to 
midnight Wednesday night, November 18, PST, as they will for several 
years at least. The map includes a virtually complete set of earthquakes 
of M2.5 or larger, plus many smaller ones that made it through the data
processing: 440 in all.
There was not much exciting this week. The largest quake was a M3.5 near 
the intersection of the Banning and San Jacinto Faults at Redlands, early
Wednesday morning. It was fairly widely felt, and there was some confusion

about whether "Caltech said" it was a Big Bear aftershock or not. This is
debatable, although we finally said that it was not, because the Redlands 
area is one of fairly high activity in its own right.
Only slightly smaller (M3.4 and M3.3) were two quakes 15 minutes apart on

Friday night, both 7 mi. NE of Barstow. These were Landers aftershocks.
Table 1 lists only earthquakes of M2.3 or larger. Times are local; for 
GMT, add 8 hrs. to the PST listed.
