In October 1989, I returned to my Los Gatos home to find the fridge overturned, the contents of the cabinets smashed on the floor, a 55gal fish tank thrown across the living room, several neighboring 1980's victorian homes utterly destroyed, the pets AWOL, and my lady huddling with the neighbors by candle light. The ground motion had been at least 1-foot in the vertical and 4-feet in the horizontal for 45 seconds or more. Wimps we are not. Maybe it is just me, but those 1980s Victorian homes never appealed to me. But it is sad when a new home gets destroyed.
Merry Christmas.

1980's = 1890's. What's a hundred years between friends! My bad! Merry Christmas to you and yours.
