I am alarmed by DR RLP's message......but then....if we knew what we don't know....we wouldn't leave our homes...I'm thinking.
Alarm was not my intent. Sharing information that might be useful was. Of course you should go about your life as usual. But you should always be cautious. That's the lesson we learned six years ago today.
Here in the Bay Area, we are constantly exhorted to be prepared for earthquakes. It's a rare household that doesn't have a store of water, canned goods, batteries, candles, medical supplies.
Most folks in the U.S., however, don't prepare for such things. There are, however, things that can happen that might disrupt power or supplies. It's always smart to keep on hand a several-days supply of essential goods.
I truly hope nothing happens. But there are folks in high places who are worrying about their loved ones around the country and letting them know to be prepared. One of my loved ones let me know.
And that's what I intended by my post yesterday.
