San Francisco held a drill today for the 'Big One.' Geologists have stated that California will be hit sometime in the next 30 years by a large earthquake that could kill many people and cause a lot of damage to homes and buildings. I found this article on Google under news. I thought this was very interesting considering the movie we watched today.
In this case I think it is very good that they are holding drills. After seeing what happened to Japan, and how they thought that they were ready for a large earthquake, it is good for them to prepare. The earthquake that hit San Francisco today only had a magnitude of 3.9 but caused no injuries. What a coincidence on the day they hold a drill (about 8.2 million people were supposed to take place in the drill), that San Francisco is hit by a minor earthquake.
