Jeff,

Yup, Grandmother's pretty sharp that way.

Palmdale is down Jfred's way and is being built up and industrialized at a startling rate. Where is Al Norte?

I have always said I would rather live in California where there is earthquake awareness (such as it is), rather than in other parts of our fair country where they have been lulled into believing earthquakes happen only in California and other foreign places. That's not to say I don't feel a tad apprehensive when traversing the bridges and freeway overpasses and underpasses and tunnels of our grand state, especially since Loma Prieta.

Of course, I have to admit surprise when I read of the New Madrid quakes of the previous century, long before the recent festivities there early in the 1990s. You could tell hardly anyone was taking the possibility of an earthquake in Missouri seriously.

I lived in Missouri for a time and remember experiencing one really nasty jolt sometime in the late 1960s. As I recall, no real damage was done with that one.
