one of your deadpans or serious? I thought I'd heard all the Geo-and-tonic jokes in my life...

Geotechtonic is still used - but really. It's archaic. The English has settled on geotectonic.

I'm just joking.

By the way, if 'tectonic' comes from the greek tektonikos, the spelling 'techtonic' is not only archaic but wrong (no chi in there, but a kappa).
