Fyron:
You asked why you was rated low. I answered.
Feel free to take my words as constructive criticism, or dismiss them as ravings from a mad man.

Either way this discussion is over from my side.

One quick question: If the "big one" came and everything on the seaward side of the San Andreas fault fell into the ocean, would:

Alta Loma/Riverside, CA, USA

still be on land or in the ocean?

This is purely a geography-type questions.

raynor, it depends on what music was playing at the time.

First off, that is impossible. There is no such thing as a "big one" quake that could do that much damage. The area is not tectonically unstable enough for that to be possible. But if (and that is a big if) it did happen, Alta Loma would be screwed.

I am prepared. I own future ocean front property in Arizona.

I doubt the coast of California will drop off any time soon. It is actually moving north very slowly, not dropping off. If you want to plan for natural disasters, the Yellowstone caldera would be a more likely candidate. And if you move up the coast, there are several million people that live in the shadows of semi-dormant volcanoes.
