The major problem is not california sinking into the ocean or anything stupid like that. The major problem is the super volcano that is ALL of yellow stone national park. That thing go's off millions will die.

Now it is bigger then anyone imagined, its a united states killer, a weather changer, a species killer.

I live in Norway, and I must admit Yellowstone worries even me.. That thing is centuries overdue as it is, and still growing. Any earthquake on that continent might set the volcano off.. Scary scenario..  :uhoh

That will probably black out most of the planet in ashes, and then comes the weather and after effects one after the other..
By the size of that magma chamber underneath Yellowstone it will be hell on earth when it goes off, I am pretty sure!  :(

I watched the collapsed Cyprus superstructure during the 89 Loma Prieta earthquake from my kitchen window along with the ground shaking so hard I couldn't stand up or walk straight. And the after shocks that initially weren't much better.

Have you ever been in an earth quake of that magnitude not knowing what will happen, or have any place to run away from what may happen to you? It's akin to being chained to a chair blind folded under an apartment building 5th story window. While renovation workers don't know you are down there randomly throwing debris and furniture out that window. The only thing you can do is grit your teeth and wait for it to end. Not a lot different than waiting out an air raid not knowing if your shelter is up to a direct hit.

You guys have some strange preoccupations. Want to banter around being shot or stabbed or buried or burned or falling off multi-pitch rock walls or attacked by dogs, bears, snakes or walking away from crashes or how the people you have known over 50 years finally met their ends? We mob up to protect our fairer posters perceived sensibilities then turn around and play trivial pursuit Saturday night live with things that destroy lives and kill people as realities of life.

And I bet none of you are aware 4prop is an active duty marine state side recovering from being shot recently. Now if anything is unfair, that rates up there higher than an earthquake. He kind of has a very pragmatic view on how to handle personality conflicts since he's given his all for us. He won't speak for, or to defend himself, and all of you current and retired having been shot at know why he will never say anything.

If you do not believe Hawaii is extremely overdue for a humoungous shift then you are blind.  The big island is the active one and looking at the other islands, that plate doesn't set for long.

Bustr:

I'm not sure how the two tie together here. That's very unfortunate about 4prop, but at the same time I don't know anything about him myself and I'm sure others don't as well. However, as with all wounded servicemen and women, I wish for a good recovery. I don't think Zacherof has tried to do/say anything here that's disrespectful though. I remember being young and worrying about going to Cali and if the "big one" would happen while I was vacationing, now compare that with living there. If I recall correctly Zach here is still in high school, and probably is in science classes (along w/peers) that are forced to discuss/study this stuff.

I completely agree with you, being in an earthquake is no laughing matter, and whilst being at the mercy of one nothing will be funny. I've been in one worth mentioning. However, the preoccupation with a matter as such is probably more the fun part about being young. Maybe all of us grown up should have days where we change our focus every hour, might do us some good. Cubicles kill, I used to love being a comp. tech going from job to job, interacting with new ppl every few hours and working on a different problem with unique circumstances.  

Zacherof, nothing abnormal/wrong...continue about, continue being young. Couple more years and you'll have things (insert better word) to worry about that take up much more of your freedom, enjoy it!

If you are lookin for the "Big One" in Cali??? You are in the wrong spot..
You need to go North, to Oregon or Washington, that is the sticking point..

California has had many quakes, much ground shift, so has Alaska..
But the PNW, very little.. Not for a few hundred years.. That shows
the place where the pressure is building.. Boy howdy, ready to rip any time!

Cascade Subduction fault, one of the largest in the world.. About 50 miles
off the OR/WA coast, right where the continental shelf drops into the Pacific
basin..

And we have a whole string of Volcanoes that feed off of that fault line too..
Mt Baker, Mt Rainier, Mt St Helens, Mt Hood, and many more..

I'm sittin right on top of it.. WooHoo, gonna be a hell of a ride!

i remember a big one in the early 70s 71

6.6 quake lasting 90 seconds.
I was living in North Hollywood.
The Van Norman Dam (earthen dam) came within 10 seconds (according to the experts) of letting go with the potential to take approx. 100,000 people that lived beneath it. Dam was drained later.

If the Big One hits in Southern California the damage to Newport Harbor will be devasting and the tsunami that rushes up the channel behind it will be a major killer.

I worked for SCE for about 10 years, structural draftsman in the nuclear power plant section. The cooling radiators that extend about a third of mile into the ocean will probably fracture, if the quake is 8.0 or above (had a friend in the seismic section). Radioactive water will be released and follow the current south to the tip of Baja and then swing east into the Pacific.
Then if San Onofre goes "china" the geyser of steam will will spread out and drift east, with the potential to take out an area the size of Pennsylvania.
San Onofre has triple systems, should be able to do a rapid shutdown, hopefully.

Was up on 9th floor during one in early 90's in SD. The beds would pull back about 2-4feet from the wall and then slam back into it. Pictures all on floor, cabinets open, dishes on floor, things broken everywhere,  chandelier swinging sometimes almost touching ceiling, every car alarm in parking lot going off, and that was only a ~5.5...
