    Im in Baltimore Maryland mate me & the family are all ok.

    The house got a little wind damage we got 13 inches of rain in 7 hrs last night
    and wind gusts of 75mph.

    It was pretty scary.

    The next lad next door lost most of his roof & a big tree landed on his car.
    so i can say im doing better than he is

    Just returned from a week in Boston and the Cape. Got the last plane out on Saturday night, for which I'm thankful, otherwise I'd still be stuck there. Was able to watch the game at a friend's house and took some stick the whole time.

    Hope everyone is well.

    San Francisco is a strange one.
    They know it is going to be hit repeatedly by earthquakes yet they still keep building there, I always wondered why?
    Even when it was nearly destroyed beginning of the century they rebuilt.

    Not as if the USA is short of land.

    Natural beauty I guess. People back in the day wanted to be in and around this area. As a result, it's become an incredibly important part of the economy (Statewide and Nationally) and that will never be reversed. The building codes here are remarkably strict for anything new, so rather be here in a 7.5 than somewhere else in a smaller tremor.

    What surprises me is how expensive the real estate is here...the earthquakes, or threat of them, have absolutely no effect on value.

    hope not a trend moving forward for the East Coast. can't imagine it would be, but better to do without them! Hurricanes are more than enough.
