A M 7.0 shallow strike-slip quake would usually break to the surface.

There is an interesting comment on far field triggering:

"Usually we don't think earthquake are connected across the ocean," Caruso said, but there's ongoing research in "remote triggering," the idea that a big quake can cause another quake a long distance away.

The distance between Japan and Ecuador: 15,445 kilometers, or about 9,590 miles.
A M 7.0 shallow strike-slip quake would usually break to the surface.

Brian, send me an email about what is up with you. Interesting quakes, and Earthwaves just is not interesting without some back-and-forth.
