Default Re: LA, Calf members you ok? 5.8 quake

That reminds me of when I lived up north and the big San Jose earthquake happened. My Dad worked for the local radio station. Everything was ok in our city and all the little farm towns in the area were checking in ok. After about an hour somebody realized that they had not heard back from Coalinga which is an hour west of Fresno. Most of the downtown area was leveled because it was built in brick. It was a miracle that not one person was severely hurt or killed there. It is unbelievable the amount of damage these things can do.
