I'm telling ya, it's those low-level earthquakes. It unsettles the brain. Every person I know on the west coast is effected the same way.

At least we have building standards to prepare for earthquakes out here. If a city on the east coast got hit with a 6.0 earthquake, thousands of people would die as buildings came crashing down, while California could get hit with a 7.0 (10 times as powerful) and we might lose 15 people.

BTW, the word you were looking for is "affected."

 

[Professur]

No, the word I'm lookin for is "nuts"

One can hope, but until they realize that pitchers do help the cause they could have John the Baptist running things and still finish 12 games out of first.

Dusty Baker is out in Chicago. The D'Backs need some help.

 

[Stop Laughing]

I wouldn't celebrate in Texas just yet: Dusty Baker is said to be a candidate for that job.

I wondered if you'd pick up on it....

Well you've gotta be unstable to even want to life out there in the first place. I'll stick to nice, stable, Canadian shield under my feet.

Doubtful, as the buildings in Charleston have to be able to take a 6.0...or so they alledge...

If Montreal ever got a 6.0, buildings would be the least of our troubles .... as that would entail either Mont Royal turing into an active volcano, or the entire continental plate splitting right in half.

You do know that there's an 'inactive' fault running under the Mississippi river, right?

 

[Professur]

We're on the other side of the Laurentians / Canadian Shield to be affected by that.

Doesn't matter. If that fault becomes 'active' the Canadian shield will have to give...causing more faults.

 

[Professur]

I don't think so. But, hey, feel free to call a bookie and get the odds.

You were saying?

 

[Professur]

Do you have that in English?

Basically...the Canadian shield is not as strong a place as you think.
