I am sorry the first post I was referring to the Rodney King riots about people acting so terrible.
The point I was speaking of the difference in the handling of the Northridge quake vs. the riots.
I was in my business at Chatsworth and Balboa in the same shopping center as the Ralphs that was red tagged!
The area you were in was pretty hard hit. That quake made Slymar seems like child's play. And the second one that hit that was side to side was just as strong as the first.
Are you still in Earthquake country? I headed up north in 2000! Glad I did too!

The first person I had the misfortune of seeing was a kid that was a druggie and he offered to steal me a pair of shoes! I ran out without shoes and a nail had gone in my foot. I told him "NO"!
Are you still in Earthquake country? I headed up north in 2000! Glad I did too!The company I worked for, Packard Bell / NEC, had already made the decision to move to Salt Lake City, before the Northridge Quake, and the quake sped up the move.
My wife and I are still here now, and happy to be here.
During the L.A. riots, I was a kid living up Chevy Chase in Glendale. Those were scary times.
