13. My peace of mind was relying on the direction of that arrow!

Just kidding. I'm a little more worried about how a big quake there would involve other area faults.

There's one near me in Santa Monica. In 1994 a wave hit the Santa Monica mountains and rolled back hitting a new wave right near the San Vincente fault and it caused a lot of damage.

So we're probably not safe on the Westside either.

Somehow I'm immune and don't truly feel worried. One gets blases after a while.
