quakes have beeh happening so frequently here in cali i swear i dont even get under doorways or tables anymore! lol!
NO, NOT A JOKE. before, even if it was a 2.1 we would panic, gather kids, make a big deal (even though it wasnt all that serious), but wanted to prepare just in case it rose to a 7 or whatever.
now what we honestly do is "measure it" (by measuring i mean feel the effects and detect if we're going to die or not), then depending upon the effects, we may not even stand up.
oh and no im not a fat ass that wont stand up during an earthquake. wife and i are actually slim.
