Thursday 4.5 Quake in NoCal
Just reading on CNN.com there was a 4.5 quake in northern California
overnight. It was reported to have been centered on the small town of King's Beach, California (in Placer County), which is apparently about 15 miles SW of Reno, Nevada. Anyone here in that area? Is all ok? Jeanne Hedge, as directed by Natasha http://www.jhedge.com |

It usually takes a transplanted person's family about three years to stop calling every time they hear of an earthquake. For a 4.5, most folks living on top of that fault would experience no damage. Thanks for being concerned. Regards and Purrs, O J Help keep California green and golden. Bring money! |

Can ANYONE splain to me WHY anyone continues to live there, knowing the whole coast is unstable and overdue for gimungous earthquakes that will make Salt Lake City a seaport?

Thanks for being concerned. Maybe it's because my mother's side of family lived in LA County (and some cousins are still there). Every time there was even a slight tremor she'd call back to Lakewood to see if everyone was ok, or Grandma would call Indiana to tell everyone that they were all ok ^_^ Sidenote - Grandma and Grandpa in SoCal didn't have any sort of earthquake insurance on their home, but Mom and Dad in southern Indiana do. I guess if the New Madrid fault in Missouri's boot heel goes off extensively, major damage is supposed to happen that far away (and they have a particularly persuasive insurance salesman...)
