I am 13 miles from a very stuck section of the San Andreas Fault.


The former encouraging, the latter troubling. May the former hold
true when the latter holds forth.

Here I sit on the margin of SF Bay about 2.5 miles from the Hayward
Fault (home of the "next big one") and about 14 miles from the San
Andreas Fault (which may still have a "little" time). This reminds me
- I should get that quake inspection and a few upgrades pretty quick.
We have quake insurance, but it doesn't do much good if you're
squawrshed...
