I was wrong on that, The Northridge Quake was a Strike/Slip thats why you guys got hammered.

Northridge wasn't strike-slip quake, it was a reverse-thrust quake on a deep, blind fault.

I should know better than to not read through the thread before posting. Ours may have been a 6.8 in '94, revised from 6.9.

I lived in Santa Monica, south of Pico, near the beach. North of Pico had worse structural damage, but we definitely felt the whole thing. Los Angeles native here. That one was the worst.
