Abstract	It is 10 years since shear-wave splitting, throught to be diagnostic of some form of seismic anisotropy, was first positively identified in the Earth's crust. From the beginning it was argued that the splitting was probably associated with the presence of stress-aligned cracks (inclusions) in the crust, and that this would provide the opportunity for monitoring the in situ geometry of cracks and stress in a variety of different circumstances and in a variety of different applications.
