I'm more concerned about the huge fault line that runs the miss. valley. If a earthquake like the one that happened circa 1812 would happen today.... I hope there is someone out there planning for something like that.
That's very unlikely; the recurrance time of such quakes is quite a bit longer than 200 years, and it would take much longer to build up that much strain.
There's far to much overhype of things EXCEEDINGLY unlikely to happen in our lifetimes; a Yellowstone full Caldera blast, a La Palma avalanche tsunami, or the 1811-1812 New Madrid Quakes being repeated.
Thing is there are things virtually GUARANTEED to happen in our lifetimes...such as a 6.5-7 magnitude quake somewhere on the New Madrid or Wabash Valley seismic zones....a 7-7.5 quake on the Hayward fault in Oakland/Berkeley, or a similar quake near Salt Lake City, or any of a variety of similar mag quakes near Los Angeles...that would kill thousands of people and do hundreds of billions of dollars worth of damage.
