Yea, it would be a little more deadly this time too, so good luck with not having another.

Personally, I hope it never happens. Not for any real humanitarian reason, but just because I really don't want to have to support all those Californians when they head in my direction.

Hey Choop, you know that it's possible that Vancouver could actually go underwater if the San Andreas fault lets go? Our military actually has a contingency plan for dealing with all you homeless suckers if it happens, too.

LOL. You'd hear rumblings, for sure. Rumblings as half your bloody province slides into the ocean, and then me and my buddies get a couple months pay to help salvage the situation and feed you guys soup and supply cots and blankets. And maybe guard against looters and stuff... At least that last bit could be fun...

Yeah, I hope it doesn't happen anytime soon. Can you imagine? Jesus, we can't handle a huricane...I liked Colbert last night though.

| That would be a hell of a sight. Vancouver sliding into the ocean that is. Kinda reminds me of that end of the world cartoon.

If San Fran were to quake again, those affected wouldnt move east, they would move south for the better weather.

| Luckily here is Cali were are a bit smarter, so we have been expecting and planning on earthquakes fpr quite some time. Usually all that go are mutlimillion dollar homes and freeway overpasses. So the damage is quite small.

I don't think any of us here can deny that SF going into the ocean WOULD be kind of morbidly cool...
