Northridge ‘94 (6.9) survivor here. You all in LA stay safe!

I remember it well -- the night the Devil had a nightmare. Compared to that, here in Camarillo today's seemed like one of the big Northridge aftershocks. It lasted a long time, 20-30 seconds, and seemed to grow in intensity before tapering off. Scared the hell out of the cat, and I found myself heading toward the back yard when it stopped!

Yes, I’m familiar with that quote and like it a lot. But I was also trying to point out that ‘we the people’ don’t pay enough attention to the people we elect (or allow others to elect). The Secular Puritans’ power is nothing compared to the power of an informed and determined electorate.

I’ll never forget it. At first I thought the Russians had nuked LA. I seriously thought it was The End for old B-chan.

I remember the cold chill that ran down my spine when I turned on my car radio and found nothing but static all the way across the dial.

No earthquakes in North Texas, thank God. And you can see a tornado coming!
