Not to be an alarmist, but be as prepared as you can in case we have an emergency.

I am not sure if you know Lucy Jones of the US Geological Serivice (she is on TV after all of the big earthquakes in CA). She was on TV yesterday andfor the first time ever, she seemed very worried about the liklihood of a huge earthquake very soon. Based on her information, it will start in the Banning Pass and be so strong that it will move west to the ocean, causing massive damage. If you have an emergency kit then you should be in good shape, but if not, here are some of the items that you can get at Costco which are necessary:

1) Complete Emergency Preparedness Kit Item# 304916
2) Emergency Food Kit Item# 104893
3) Xantrex™ XPower™ Powerpack Solar Item# 288568
4) Bottled Water 1/2-Liter 24ct Item# 117270
5) The Backside™ 3 Person Lightweight Backpacking Tent Item# 185626
