Nothing is scarier than being in a big earthquake. You can't even imagine unless you have been in one.

At least you can avoid hurricanes AMD tornadoes to a certain extent.

Just walking around downtown I’m really not seeing much damage. Pretty impressed.

This could be bad for the fishing industry.

That's pretty rare, you've probably used up your quote of big quakes. You'll get a lot of much smaller ones though.

Strangely most of the downtown buildings were built before enhanced building codes.

Is it true that animals can feel one before it hits?

May be.

I actually sensed the one in 2002 before anyone else in the room. Some people and critters may be more sensitive to movement

Been adjusted up to 7.2


Always crazy to me when they show adjustments like this.. a 7.2 is like five and a half times the energy of a 6.7 I think.
