Since they're calling for the BIG ONE, any day now, your awareness is probably heightened, a bit:eek:

Sandy & Sally,

I am always paying attention to the quakes and patterns, but that may not mean too much.

At least our E-Kit is almost complete. I am just waiting for two small items to finish it: (1) Polypropylene Reverse Cutting Precision Sutures; (2) concentrated glucose tubes.

Okay, I'm sorry, but this advice always crackups me bigtime. When dozens of sq. miles around you start crumbling in all directions with literally no warning, and you can't hop the chasm in front of you as another one causes you a 10-ft. lift, how careful are you really going to be right then?:eek::D

Lmao! So true! I have this vision of being sucked into the ground by a large crack in the ground. And don't anyone tell me it can't happen. I just read somewhere (don't ask, I can't remember lol) about some cows falling through the crack of an earthquake. :yikes:

I thought the advice was go DOWN! :eek: Aren't you supposed to find an open area with no buildings and lay down flat?

( not many calls for earthquake advice here in Maine!)

(( minds OUT of the gutters folks! :p ))

During the quake our sleeping bags (with us inside) jumped off of the ground. One of our surveyors actually had the wind knocked out of him when he came down.

At dawn we had out first look around, and there was a fissure that crossed the entire range as far as we could see in both directions. All of the paved roads within four miles were destroyed. The fissure was only a few feet across, but was very deep.

Being that we were idiots, we walked up to the fissure and dropped a rock into it....and never heard it hit the bottom.

Here is an image of the site:
