I am here because no one will pay me to play with radios and stuff in
other places. Also the weather is very nice. When the earthquake happens
all my stuff will still be right here, dry and in one piece. I don't
hang glass on the wall. I don't have heavy tall cabinets. I have
latching arrangements on the kitchen cabinets. My water heater is
strapped to the garage wall in 4 places. I have a scissors jack putting
tension on the bottom of my furnace (against the flue riser pipe thing)
to keep that from falling over and ripping a gas line.

It's possible this thing could jump off the slab, but unlikely as we
don't get them much bigger than 7, 7.5 tops. Give or take.

My old house has two floor furnaces, one of them is in my living room
near the six feet wide doorway (there is no actual door there and there
never was, maybe it is called a passage way? Sheet, I don't know.I do
know my house is a Cape Cod style house, built in 1947) next to my
dining room.The other one is in the hallway, near my bathroom.The one
near my bathroom, I haven't used that one since the 1980s, and my old
house has a crawlspace underneath there, enough headroom for me to sit
under there.I am thinking I might get rid of that old furnace, old rusty
thing, I doubt if it is safe to use anymore.Doggy and I could get down
in the crawlspace real Quick in case a tornado starts coming toward my
house.Do you follow me?

I've lived in houses like that. Do you have a gas fireplace. Those are
nice. I have a gas space heater in my garage.

I don't use any natural gas anymore, I don't trust natural gas.Electric
heating and electric water heater and electric stove.I might get rid of
the floor furnace in my living room too.Each one of the floor furnace
floor openings/holes in the floor (hardwood floor) measures about 31''
by 21'' That is enough room for me to squeeze down under there.If a
tornado hits and I can't come up I can crawl over to the crawlspace
opening (house sits on a concrete foundation) by the side of my house.

You must have money to burn. As far as not trusting methane, that's like
not trusting sand. Methane is ubiquitous. Just about every living thing
on earth gives up methane eventually.

There are entire planets made of methane!
