The LA times has an article about the controversy, where USGS and Lucy Jones vehemently disagree.

Many people have asked me about this. I point out that, in general, we cannot be this positive about when a quake will happen. I DO predict that there will be a quake of 2.5 or larger near San Ramon today!!
