Well, fingers crossed, huh. Or some engineers out there will be sentenced to hell.
But that building would still stand in my region.
Both floods and droughts are our issues over here, but quakes? Nope, we don't have any, so it would be valid out here.

The only reason it's obvious in California is because of Hollywood and we have 38 million social media posters, and before that, nobody lived nor cared, nor understood the dangers of the Pacific Northwest -- in a similar fashion as the Super Volcano of Yellowstone.

It has been quite some time since L.A. / S.F. / S.D. have been hit by a sizable quake. 1994 was the last somewhat major quake and that wasn't even near the potential.
