Supposedly, the New Madrid fault just due south of IL has some potential for significant damage. OTOH, the populations affected, there, aren't what they would be in (anywhere!) Calif.

It's one thing to be on a man-made structure and experience motion (Harvard Bridge, Royal Gorge Bridge, tall buildings, etc.); yet another to be on "solid ground" and feel it move! |

It IS an interesting experience! I remember a 6.2 shaker in 1970 when the brand new freeway overpass in Northern Los Angeles fell. We were in bed on the second floor when it hit, and I watched our building rock back and forth, bang! bang! and the street rolled like waves for a good 2 minutes. It was fun! |

We were in bed on the second floor when it hit, and I watched our building rock back and forth, bang! bang! and the street rolled like waves for a good 2 minutes. It was fun! The Harvard Bridge (Cambridge-Boston, MA) sort of "floats". When you walk on it, passing traffic causes the bridge to "bounce". So, you have this competing rhythm that screws up your walking pace; instead of "step, step, step" it's "step - boing - step - boing, boing - step". It can be disturbing the first time you encounter it. The "roadway" of the Royal Gorge Bridge is built of *planks* laid on steel supports. So, when the (occasional, touristy) car drives by, the planks flex and lift you up a bit. As they are only ~10-12 inches wide, you can visibly watch the ripple in the roadway as the car advances past you. At ~1000ft to the river below, you really wish they'd opted to use something other than LUMBER!! I'd like to be in an open field (away from buildings that might tumble) to experience an earthquake. To be able to *think* about what is happening and "gather data" (observations) to try to rationalize what my body would be feeling. (having to worry about my personal safety would sort of hamper that!) |

We are waiting for "The Big One" to hit here still... http://www.history.com/this-day-in-h...ks-los-angeles Someday CA is going to crack off from the rest of the U.S. and will then become a country of their own. That's why they already have their own political system which greatly varies from that of the rest of the U.S. I always wondered why so many products say something like "this faucet does not comply with California building codes because it contains lead". That tells me that either anyone living in the other 49 states are immune to the effects of lead, or else those in CA have weaaker immune systems. Once CA cracks off from the rest of the U.S. will they still be part of the U.S. government, or will they become a separate nation, with it's own president and laws? This may sound far fetched, but it's not as crazy as it appears. Look at the southern (or south American) part of CA that extends down into the ocean. (I cant remember the name of that). It's obvious that piece of land was once attached to the main body of South America, and broke off somewhere in history, probably thousands of years ago. Because of the placement of the plates (fault line) on the West coast, it's not as crazy as it may seem, that eventually CA will break away from the rest of the U.S. However, if you who live there think you'll soon be free of Washington DC and it's politics, dont count on it. I doubt any of this will occur in our lifetimes. But there will still continue to be small and sometimes larger quakes along that fault line. No matter where we live, there will always be the possibility of disasters on Earth. If it's not earthquakes, it's tornados, hurricanes, floods, and so on. And if the Earth itself dont do enough damage, it appears that there will always be wars and man-made disasters because people cant get along with each other. |

That's why they already have their own political system which greatly varies from that of the rest of the U.S.. I always wondered why so many products say something like "this faucet does not comply with California building codes because it contains lead". That tells me that either anyone living in the other 49 states are immune to the effects of lead, or else those in CA have weaaker immune systems. Some Californians are buying land east of the San Andreas fault right now. When the big one hits and Cali slips off into the Pacific, they will have beach front property to sell and be rich mofo's. First, they have to survive it. I imagine something like rats jumping off a sinking ship, where the frak will they go. Go East young rat! Š™.˜‰ [8~{} Uncle Rodent Monster |

At 6:41AM PST a shaker hit the Lake Elsonore area. It was strong enough to wake up the 'hood, but noone got out of bed. yawn Several of these 3-4 ones around San Andreas in the last few days. A decent size shakers and few more mud slides and you might just have ocean front property! |
