Went through the Northridge quake as well. When I moved back to KC I remember feeling so safe sleeping at night knowing the risk of a killer quake was little at best.
I always thought we here in SoCal were the only ones to have quakes, then I saw this report on TV how there are many fault lines that go through the midwest and the east coast, I had no idea that quakes can happen anywhere. I guess it doesn’t matter where you live, a natural disaster can happen anywhere, from tornadoes to hurricanes to earthquakes, just with quakes you have no warning
