Hi. If you live in earthquake country, please take this quiz. It is good. We recently had a few back to back severe storms in Calif. that knocked out people's power for a few days. Many people wrote to the newspapers and complained on the newscasts that they were upset because PG&E did not respond fast enough. It's a wonder that PG&E had almost 1 million homes to attend to. I think they did the best they could under the circumstances. It's a wonder that for 1+ week we had warnings from the news about the upcoming storms; enough time to prepare with flashlights, batteries, candles, blankets for warmth, quick/ready foods, etc. It's not that hard to be prepared. People were so desperate without their power. It's a wonder that people cannot just sit and read without power. Play board/family games. Talk. Bond. I shudder to think all the people that take lightly the coming overdue large earthquake. It is not "if" but "when".
BE PREPARED!!!

Cool Nephthys. No earthquake damages generally ( historically anyhow) reach this far North but I didn`t do too bad. 7 out of 10 correct. I got all the gas questions wrong. Since locally most gas is propane, I answered how a five hundred gallon pig full of propane is to be handled in case of a potential rupture.  ------------------
