Well, earthquakes occur seldom, especially really
strong earthquakes. The mild ones are rather exciting.
Getthe adrenaline flowing. So I guess we here in
California have an advantage. The only difficulty is
that so far they aren't able to forecast them or warn
people about impending ones, unlike hurricanes,
tornadoes, etc. As far as cold and snow go, if one is
transplanted from the Midwest or East, it takes a long
time to get used to the lack of seasons, especially at
Christmastime. Shopping or Christmas presents in
comparatively warm, sunny weather is not fun --one
needs dark overcast, cold, possibly snowy weather. Not
until I had children could I forget about the weather
and enjoy the Christmas shopping and season.
However, all of you, too, might experience
earthquakes. There is a large fault -- is it the New
Madrid? in the southern part of the Midwest that had
an earthquake in the 19th century (I think it was -- I
don't want to interrupt this writing to check) that
was felt all way to the East Coast. So you, too much
enjoy the experience. We don't want to hog the fun
(grin).
