     No, but I have a mildly educated idea as to why this is happening, based 
partially on the earthquakes in Oklahoma, which are suspected to be caused by 
fracking.  The geology in the vicinity of Lake Mead has fault lines everywhere, 
the result of millions of years of geological uplifting and collapsing.  The 
area is a tremendous matrix of uplifted ridges and narrow canyons.

     Lake Mead has been filled for almost a century now, and it sits in the 
middle of all this with fault lines in every direction beneath it and to every 
side.  It is very likely that water from the lake has been passing into these 
faults, especially at the deeper levels where the water pressure will be quite 
high.  This water may have entered into areas within the faults where it 
provides some level of lubrication to the surfaces.

     It's not nice to screw with Mother Nature.
