I apparently suck at recognizing quakes. The last time was probably 2 years ago when I was in class and the blackboard made some noise. I don't think most ppl thought much of it because our professor was pretty damn loud, but that was a quake I later researched.

And the other time was at least 5 years ago when I was sitting at my desk staring at water, and it started shaking. I was sitting nearly completely still, and I was on aim too. That was fun because I actually IMed a bunch of people asking. I just froze there watching that cup of water. My parents were like get outside you idiot, but I just sat there for 20 seconds...

Yea, my Berkeley friends are telling me they felt it, and I guess I was too into watching Emeril and House while lying on my couch...

So many people jealous of CA. I guess they forgot about their tornado, hurricanes, -20 degrees and 120 degrees weather

In the southwest the only of the four "problems" you listed that applies is 120F heat, and dry heat is awesome.

-20 degrees is the perfect weather.

I am in no way, shape, or form jealous of California. At least I can own whatever firearm I want, and buy silencers, full auto, and whatever other NFA items I want, all without the earthquakes.

More people die from Heat every year than the last 2 major earthquakes in CA the past 100 years.
