My experience anyway.
when the "big one" hits california its going to be a lot more then things falling off the shelf and with zero notice. The scale of devastation and human death toll could be huge.

with hurrican wilma we didnt have electricty for 9 days and some went without for 3-4 weeks. But i had the choice to stay here or go sit on a beach somewhere else until things got back to normal

with a big earthquake the aftermath is potentially catastrophic. It could make the hurricane that hit N.O. look like a walk in the park.
