The loss of California would be a bad thing?

From what I've seen of the state and been told from those who live there, it's San Franciso and Coastal Southern California that are the areas that taint the rest of the state with the label "land of fruits and nuts".

Maybe a smallish tsunami would do the job...

Wait a minute. We haven’t been wiped out by the bird flu yet, and now the nuts are talking tsunami? Hey, one hysteria at a time.

We'd have no opportunity to prepare for something so near since a tsunami can travel at the speed of sound. A warning system would be useless. Folks further up the coast, let's say Oregon, would have more warning and folks can move inland or to higher ground.

There was a Discovery Channel (or similar) special on this fault line and the risks to the West Coast. It ran in the past month or two.

Also, if we are all going die from the bird flu, who cares about the tsunami? There won’t be any human life left to destroy.

"Report: California Unprepared for Tsunami" Hmmmm...I'm not sure that is a true statement based on the growing population of Nevada.

I'm betting the majority of Nevada's new residency once resided in Kalifornia. (aka; "not all Kalifornians are a asleep at the wheel - just the ones waiting for Mexico's reaquisition of their property")

While they're at it, they should consider a shield or force field to protect them in case the moon decides to fall into the Earth.

Get in your car.

Drive like hell.

Too simple. It would never work. It's gov't. We need a 10 point plan, a blue-ribbon committee, an evacuation czar and a bunker for the mayor to hide in with no satellite phone.

In all seriousness, the megacities on the West Coast are suffocating in traffic problems today, in an evacuation you're better off running like hell than trying to drive anywhere. Local government is not prepared to organize a evacuation in these cities.

NIV Luke 21:25-28
 25.  "There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea.
 26.  Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken.
 27.  At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
 28.  When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near."

We are well prepared here in Indiana.

...what is California really prepared for? I can think of nothing.

Many there live in a +/- 10 hour existence.

Yeah, I've heard this before.

I was lounging in the hot tub at my beachfront home, bathed in golden light and surrounded by flowers, listening to the Pacific crashing beautifully on the shore, a Puccini aria softly playing, sipping incredible Napa Valley chardonnay and munching to-die-for freshly grown raspberries, peaches, apracots, almonds, olives, strawberries, chantarelles, morelles, apples, cherries...

...thinking about mudslides, forest fires, earthquakes, race riots, lawsuits, drive-by shootings, Leftist politics, drug-dazed "homeless" panhandlers, frantic freeways, crumbling infrastructures, insidious Marxism, stifflingly illiberal Leftist totalitarian bullies, great white sharks, mindless "celebrities", selectively enforced legal statutes, sadistic environmentalists and other assorted "activists"...

...wondering if it was worth it...

...and the TV reporter announced:

"California could have a tsunami..."

he-he. Sounds to me like ALL the limousine LIBERALS on the 'left coast' would be wiped out in one fell swoop.

I've never heard of Trilobis 65 before. Do you have a link?

It seem alike everyone thinks that all of Kalifornia lives 6 inches from the water. With elevations that reach over 12,000' I would think just a few of us can weather the storm.
I have my own power, fuel for my power and vehicles, water source, and food storage. I also have the ability to protect my assets. No I don't live in the cities, I don't even visit them.
