In ex-City Councilman Hal Bernson's day, Los Angeles was a leader in preparing for the Big One, the 7 magnitude or greater earthquake that geologists say is inevitable and overdue - and will be unleashed upon Los Angeles by the San Andreas, Hollywood, Puente Hills, Santa Monica or Newport-Inglewood fault.

The Newport-Inglewood fault also runs through the more conservative Orange County so let’s hope it’s not that one. San Andreas and/or Hollywood faults would be preferred, from my selfish perspective. And only if it happens while Motorhead is out on tour so Lemmy doesn’t get injured by the shaking and destruction.
