"Why isn't FEMA there already?"
Are you crazy? That could be dangerous. Better to wait 24 hrs. to let things calm down and then give a news conference.

I go to the USGS site every morning. One morning it won't be there and then you'll know............

Has Al Gore been consulted on this? I believe he mentioned if everyone in LA would move to the east side of the fault then earth would once again be in balance. That may be inconvenient but it is the truth.

could produce a massive earthquake at any moment In a geologic "moment", perhaps, which could mean anywhere from 11:00AM today until 100,000 years in the future. EVERYONE !!!! INTO THE SEA !!!!

Should I postpone my annual three weeks to San Diego and Santa Barbara county? What to do?
To: 300magnum
Interesting report. Most reports of doom are premised on the doom occurring over the course of generations. This one, instead, predicts doom within most of our lifetimes.
The proverbial ticking timebomb...
To: oldleft
Just so I understand this correctly...
The faults that are currently in Los Angeles County are off-shoots (or separate faults) of the San Andreas fault?
For example, the Northridge quake (was it in '93 or '94?) could have been from an off-shoot fault of the San Andreas fault - or from its own separate fault?

Yeah, heaven forbid we let the local authorities handle things, and let locals pay for rebuilding.

Everyone in SoCal would be wise to have a months supply of everything. Why?
Didn't you hear?
Everything East of the fault will break off and fall into the Atlantic.

Why does Reuters switch from "metres" to "feet" mid-article...just to confuse things?

I recommend a long relaxing vacation, with maybe some massage therapy...

I go to the USGS site every morning. California shakes like a bowl of freakin' jello Something like 200 quakes a week.
I like the " did you feel it" section and always fill it out when we feel one in my area.
To: oldleft
all 4 aqueducts How long would it take to restore flow? Would a front-end loader and a bulldozer get things fixed up in an hour?
