No damage but were there any improvements? And, not only is la racis’, they’re responsible for the glow bull discombobulation that triggered the erf quake to begin with. At least locally.

I knew it!

As soon as California considered allowing fracing they’re getting earthquakes. Stop fracing now, before L A falls into the ocean.

All depends on your comfort zone, I would rather live with the earthquakes I have grown up with than the thumb of God coming down out of the sky to squish me like a bug, or a hurricane, or a blizzard or a Mt. St. Helen.

We lived pretty close (maybe 7 miles) to the Northridge epicenter and had lots of damage to our home and our psyches. At least with the other natural disasters, you usually have a fair amount of warning. After Northridge, every time we had a tremor in the night, my heart would race and it would take a while to calm enough to go back to sleep. I DO NOT miss the earthquakes.

Hey in that situation I fully understand and would probably re think my current opinion, I myself had great trepidation driving under overpasses after Northridge. Glad you all made through that safe.

That quake had my pool water sloshing in GILA BEND, AZ!

I figured most of Cali was gone. That was a tumbler.
