"The possibility of a San Andreas quake AT ANY TIME should already be part of your planning or you shouldn't be in California." — Dr. Lucy Jones (@DrLucyJones) July 13, 2020

If my odds of winning at gambling tripled from .77 to 2.3 I would not gamble more. Those odds are so low that they are meaningless. Give me numbers like 23.0 and I will start to worry, but 1 in 40? I will bet against those odds every single time.

Well.

Murder hornets.

Alligators in trees.

Flying spiders.

Chinese plague.

Riots and race wars.

Chinese Communists angling for war.

Lockdowns.

Facemaksks.

I guess an 8.0 earthquake in California would fit right in.

We’ve lived in California for 75 years, and heard this same dire warning of anywhere from 6.8 - 9.0 to the point we just say “OK, here we go again”. Someday it will happen, but the little boy has cried Wolf so often we just can’t get excited.

Chance?

Of total course.

Science? Not yet there in Cali ‘quake prediction.

See _The Big One_ by Kevin E. Ready for a novel-length depiction of an earthquake on the Garlock and San Andreas faults.
