One day the "big one" will hit and it will be the worst thing to happen in America in the modern recorded history. I don't wish suffering on them even though a whole hell of a lot of them are fucking our country over but you don't fuck with nature. It does not care who you are good or bad.

From the post:
>A major California fault once thought to be stable is quietly shifting beneath neighborhoods, schools, and it could lead to a powerful quake with no warning. A new US geological (USGS) survey showed that Concord Fault, a geologic fault in the San Francisco Bay Area, is active and moving due to ongoing tectonic motion between the Pacific and North American plates. A section of the fault, known as the Madigan Avenue strand, stretches 12.4 miles through Walnut Creek and Concord, from North Gate Road near Mount Diablo to Suisun Bay — areas home to more than 300,000 people. According to the study, if the Concord Fault ruptures, it could produce an earthquake of magnitude 6.7 or higher, based on its length. A fault is a fracture in the Earth's crust where land slowly shifts over time. But if that movement suddenly snaps, it can trigger a powerful and destructive earthquake.
