I thought you guys out on the east coast did not have to deal with earthquakes? Darn that sucks having to have earthquakes, tornadoes, and hurricanes. At least you didn't have to have Gray Davis:rofl2

I'll take earthquakes over tornados and hurricanes ANY day. Besides, earthquakes are fun. I've gotten used to saying "Shut up! It's just an earthquake!" to people here. :lmao

I live 100 feet away from the Hayward Fault. And it is predicted that the next major earthquake in the bay area will come from that fault line. Me, scared? Couldn't care less.
