here is video of judge judy taping when quake hit:

nothing too dramatic but cool too see her reaction when she realizes she is not in control of the "courtroom".

Wow! That's amazing. Who knew that show was still on the air.

With hanging lights over their heads, I'm surprised people were so calm. Then again, they should have safety lines attached to them...

Judge Judy was outta there quick. Ran off to her panic room, I guess.
:D

All depends upon the ground that the area sits on. If one is on bedrock, not too much damage. If you are on landfill or a former marsh, you will see lots of damage.

For example, in the 1989 Loma Prieta quake, the Marina District incurred such severe damage because the land was pretty loose, being a lot of landfill on/near very wet areas.

Yes, the USGS has narrowed it down to there being "major quake" (6+ I think) somewhere in California sometime in the next 30 years :rolleyes:

There is CONSTANTLY activity on the San Andreas. Its when it STOPS having activity, that's when one should worry.

Super mojo to the camera operator who made sure to capture all that instead of jumping ship. Now that is dedication! :snap:

As freaked out as I was, earthquakes also fascinate me. It's an awe-inspiring and humbling moment, realizing that we are powerless when it comes to the forces of nature. No matter how advanced our technology, nothing can compare to her power. We'll never stop the earth from shaking, the wind from blowing, the rain from pouring, etc., etc. At any given moment, we can be wiped off the face of the planet at her will.

Spoken like a true wiccan.

:p

Wasn't trying to be all spiritual or anything. Just observant about natural forces. :p

Those are coffee grounds from two coffe pots that fell during the quake. :rolleyes:
