I guess living on the Ring of Fire makes you more aware of it. More expectant.

Just think of the fun if the Crater Lake Caldera, Long Valley Caldera, or Yellowstone go.

Yikes!  I don't even want to think about it.  We're all SOL if that happens anyway so there's no use worrying about it.

One of the advantages of living in Minnesota is that 2/3 of the state sits on the Canadian Shield.  Our earthquakes are very infrequent and weak.  I've never felt one in 40+ years, but people tend to get excited about a magnitude 2 or 3 around here.   ::)
