One of my dad's friends is a seismologist and he told me a couple of years ago that a 8.0+ earthquake is going to hit southern california in the next decade. This was about 3 years ago...time to prepare.

Japan's quake was a 9.0. The max that San Andreas can produce is an 8.0, and that's not under water. Japan's quake was, which caused the tsunami. So while the 'big one' thats coming in california will be bad, it won't be as bad as the one in Japan.

Ok, yeah no expert here but I guess what I was trying to say is that one can never be too prepared for a natural disaster.
