there have been earthquakes in CA for ages.....and if it is any consolation, we felt it out here in AZ too.

and for the record, the earthquake was actually in mexico.

This is crazy. I feel like there are more though. Wasn't there one in Indonesia and Japan?

It's not as common as people think
Not as scary as it used to be in the good old days though
I think the houses they build are able to withstand an 8 until the foundation breaks or something...

I'm just worried we'll eventually have that giant one that's supposed to be around an 8

I mean it's like what, a couple decades overdue?

As long as it doesn't happen when I'm on the can I'm fine.
