And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Creep of the Hayward fault over the years - East Bay
A geology professor told me that a business associate was moving to CA and asked for advice where to live which wasn't near an active fault. Professor laughed.
This was upon occasion of me showing professor a wall map I had bought which showed all known fault zones in the state. Professor had mailed that same map to his associate. The map showed the entire state cracked throughout.
A fault occurring on a single curb. HA! That is some real $cience there. Dang, I've owned a house or two that the foundation shifted more than that due to poor preparation.
34 years and they NEVER replaced that curb????
ReplyDeletein 1974 that curb looks like a personal injury attorney's wet dream.

ReplyDeleteNot to worry. The fault will eventually default
ReplyDeleteso which ones moving, the gray one or the red one?
ReplyDeleteFor Gods's sake! Get the pencil off the curb!

Red curbs always move to to the left in CA.
ReplyDeletebecause of all the easterners who moved here to be movie stars
