LOL I was reading through the thread and was like ok... I see they are having a drill but where on earth does it say they are going to get an earthquake... good job!!
Have Michael J Fox look up some records of natural disasters for you next time he goes back to the future
I laughed so hard when I saw the title of this thread
With our current technology, there is nothing we can do to really accurately predict earthquakes. I mean there are some signs that something might be happening, but it's still possible for one to pop up without ANY warning. The best thing we can really do is try to make things more "quake resistant" I guess you could say like adding counterweight systems and breakaway walls and things in structures to minimize damage and deaths from earthquakes in areas where they are common...
