I won't be worried unless Houston all of a sudden gets a 'quake. Then I'll believe the 2012 thing.

Southern California gets dozens, if not hundreds, of such quakes every year.

"Hundreds" of 4.4 magnitude quakes? Nah. "Hundreds" of minor quakes, yes. Similar quakes can be described as "common," but even 200 would mean at least twice every three days. I have yet to even feel/notice a quake in my part of SoCal and I've been here 1.5 years.

Houston gets wiped out by a huge wave, no need to worry about an Earthquake.

I have a friend, who knows someone, that is related to a person, that is married to a guy, who overheard two guys in the CIA bathroom talking about information that the earthquakes are actually deep underground nuclear bomb testing around the world.

I'm still waiting on the New Madrid fault line to let loose. It is near Memphis. Last time it let loose (100+ years ago ) the Mississippi river flowed backwards.

Well to be fair, I wrote "dozens, if not hundreds,"...

I certainly hoped you explained to her that in L.A. an earthquake is nothing to fear. It's one of the most structurally-sound cities in the world, a second only to some city in Japan if I remember correctly. I thought the quake was pretty pleasant from south L.A.

People like to talk, though, don't they? If it's not been mentioned on the news, I've no clue how a civilian can figure that out.

Build an quake proof concrete geodesic dome and live in in the middle of a big field so nothing can fall on you. Do not use natural gas connected from the street, use Propane in a tank so you can easily shut if off. Electricity should be buried and the dome a long way away from the nearest pole. |

I've been researching owning Geodesic dome homes for 15 years and still consider them a viable optin for a future home. I've ordered kits, samples, built modles, etc. Goin' dome and all-electric is not a far-fetched idea. Insurance companies take notice.

With the modern foam and concrete methods used to build homes, it would be even easier to build one now. Very good in hurricane areas, not sure about tornado areas though. If you built it into a sphere I bet it would be very quake resistant too.
Alternate might be shipping container homes. Steel shipping containers all welded together to form a strong steel home. Supposed to be fairly cheap construction if containers are in good supply locally. |
