Just watched a good show,

on the San Andreas Fault, that runs through California. It is the most studied fault in the world, and over the last 6000 years has had a MAJOR event approx every 150 years. The last one was in 1857, when a 7.9, known as The Great California Earthquake rocked the area that is now Los Angeles. In 1857 there were approx 3 residents per sq mile, but there are more than that, now. I worked the Northridge quake in 1994, which was pretty major, but nothing like what Southern California is 'overdue' for. Although I consider myself retired now, concerning hurricanes, etc, I think I might come out of retirement, if there is a major quake in the next few years. They're gonna need the help. Just thinking out loud, after watching the TV show...
