At least here in Texas, we can generally count on the tornados to show up during certain parts of the year.

The 3 day GOOD bag is a great suggestion, regardless of what natural disasters your area has. Makes you wonder how a gooberment geek thought of it.

In fact, it’s not possible. “Although the broad scientific community has been working relentlessly to give us better information about earthquakes... being able to predict when earthquakes will strike is not something they can do at this point,”

Ummmm......if they can't predict it, then how do they know it WON'T happen?

Someone is going to look really stupid if a big one actually hits now.

“This kit would contain enough food, water, and supplies to sustain each member of a household for a minimum of 72 hours. A battery powered radio is also essential to have on hand.”

I remember as a kid, probably early 70s, Rosie from “Laugh In” on a talk show saying she had an earth quake survival bag in her car. They treated her like a nut. I thought it sounded pretty sensible at the time. It made an impression on me. As a nurse, I guarantee I have one heck of an emergency medical back pack...and a few other necessary supplies.

DRATS! They got my hopes up only to be dashed, smashed into the ground, breaking my heart once again.

Thanks Beaten Valve. I'll predict a major quake in California will strike on March 6th. Okay, it's more of a guess than a prediction. But they work out to the same thing, right? I'm channelling the disembodied spirit of the Lemurian prince who taught the ancestors of the Maya how the calendar works. ;')

So much for my potential ocean front property in Barstow.
