Very interesting article in that link, Cindi.
Like Sue said, some other state finally topped Ca. for quake activity.
My aunt who lived in Sylmar, Ca. had a cat that they figured either ran away or got eaten by a coyote. This was two years BEFORE the Sylmar quake. Three weeks AFTER the quake the cat resurfaced and lived another 12 years.
It seems like whenever you see news coverage of people returning to what's left of their homes after a quake or a fire, there's always a cat lingering about who managed to escape unscathed.
