Well according to your 360 page, and your MySpace page, you already live in Gustine. I believe though that you might already live in Los Banos. Things are starting to come together, and your lies are unraveling or at least for me they are. I haven't heard that they were 'expecting' a huge earthquake any time soon, so I doubt it. Besides, by the time they will be able to really pinpoint when and where and how severe an earthquake will be you'll be old enough to move out of your parents house if it frightens you that much little girl. They do have the technology to detect a shift in tectonic plates of an area, however they haven't yet perfected a method for pin-pointing how those shifts will affect us yet. Like I said give it ten or fifteen years, and you'll be what 23 or 28 maybe and you can go out and get away from it, if you truly fear what might happen.

Oh, by the way! I didn't forget to post your Myspace page did I? Of course not, and I'll be back in just a minute with your 360! Here ya go:

There are many other reasons why a person should move out of LA... smog, traffic, crime rate,... those are just a few. If an earthquake hits Cali - it will be felt all over. In fact, the bay area is more in danger of a big earthquake than LA is now.
I am from Gustine and recommend it, if you like a sleepy town. Its got that all-american charm. Population is low, but has gone up over the last few years. It was about 5,000 people in 1999 but has shot up a few thousand due to commuters who live in Gustine but travel to the City to work. Each year, they have a fantastic 4th of July festival and you won't want to miss their festa! Its a big party!
Los Banos is not recommended - too much crime and you'll never want your kids in schools there.
Sacramento is a good option if you find a nice part of town.

Good luck!

Girl, just move to another city temporarily and take all of your valuable things with you. Earthquakes usually strike without too much notice or warning. But in Italy the entire seaport of Pozzuoli is on the verge of being toppled into the Bay of Naples by a slow-motion earthquake, known as bradyseism. New volcanic fissures opened up early in March and scientists said the new fissures, which are giving out sulphurous vapors from an underground, hot lava sea, indicated a sharp increase in seismic activity. Mass-evacuation plans were under way to move the town’s 70,000 population out of the danger zone.
Can Earthquakes Be Predicted?

OUR home the earth is jolted by a million earthquakes every year. Most of us are unaware of the majority of them. Less than one third are perceptible to humans. Nevertheless, one or two thousand cause destruction.

In a few seconds a large quake can shake a major city to rubble and bury thousands of persons in their own homes, schools and stores. Thus, knowing precisely in advance where and when earthquakes will take place could save countless lives.

Men have for long observed “nature” and tried to predict earthquakes. They know, for example, that dogs begin howing before a quake and that the timing of some water geysers speeds up. But long-range warnings are vital so that large metropolitan areas can be evacuated in advance.

Recent findings have stimulated the hopes of some persons that the day is at hand when men may be able to foresee earthquakes. What have they found? Before that question is answered, let us discuss what earthquakes really are.

You'll be in danger of experiencing a major earthquake anywhere in CA. It's a classic case of "You can run, but you can't hide". Los Banos is a hell-hole; hot in the summer, and tule fog all winter, and the ground water is full of toxic substances. I wouldn't live there for $50,000,000. Gustine is just as bad.
Sacramento's climate is just as bad, with the added benefit of humid summers.
You're better off in LA!

I have lived in L.A. since 1952. I have been through several earthquakes. Never had any damage or problems. I live in an apartment building built in the 1960's. The key is not moving to another town, but moving into a building which is constructed from concrete and steel, not wood and plaster. Seek and ye shall find.
Good Luck.

There has been a big earthquake expected in California since forever. They even wrote a song about it back in the 70's. This is not anything new, and nothing to be worried about. A natural disaster could happen anywhere at anytime.

No one can predict when and where an earthquake is going to happen. Supposely, the next big earthquake is in the Bay Area meaning Northern Cali. Here's an article: http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/prepare/future/

But again it can happen anywhere, anytime.

Don't be afraid - I was terrified when we had the big one in 89 but look how long that has been. I meteor could fall on us, a spider could bite us. Just make each day special and think of good things.
