Oh bah!! The media is always talking about 'the big one' and throwing out BS 'statistics' that in the end really mean nothing and all they ever really say is: "Could the big one be near?? We don't know but maybe you should freak out just incase."

:roll:

Read the comments-apparently Santa Barbara will be completely destroyed. Maybe Oprah will be at her home there when it happens, that's about the only thing that will stop the runaway Oprah crazy train. Santa Barbara is full of really rich people, which it's always cool if they die since they're leeches on society. The workers create the wealth, the rich steal it. No rich=workers keep their wealth! Yay!

From what I've been reading regarding California's budget problems, even a small earthquake would be a major disaster.
