Haha, I noticed that! I think people have too much money to blow on random crap out here. Cost of living is relatively low, and while on an average people make less money out here, there are a lot of people that make a TON of money out here. I agree, and beyond that, until I just looked it up, I didn't really consider Utah as being a place that gets earthquakes. Apparently, they do, but in my Californian experience, these are rather tiny, and there's not enough in the way of damage that can be done, unless it landed smack dab in SLC.

Anyhow, I'm relating it to "bought a home, had too much money and spent it on random alarms and buzzers because then we feel somehow safer, even if it's entirely unnecessary."
