Living in SoCal, I am attuned to the possibility of the "Big One," the next big catastrophic earthquake in the region. often concern is raised that this event is overdue, based on the historical record. The article referenced above examines the concept and suggests that we are not necessarily overdue at all.

Of course, at any moment, shaking may commence and the theorists will go back to the drawing board....

My EQ interest is heightened by viewing a County hazard map which shows a fault line running diagonally across our lot. I have looked at the map carefully and I am pretty sure the fault is at least five feet north of our bed. Not to worry....

I'd be in no hurry! grin We don't have to worry about quakes in Montana, at least til the Caldera erupts. That's also perhaps overdue! whistle
