hi,

a possible solution is to search in a local copy.
you can download the database from here:
http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/Seis.html#FULL
(about 150MB)
then do text search locally with a tool of your choice (i use grep(1))

in addition a local webserver + simple .cgi will give you sequences when
you lack internet connectivity.
