The news likes to show the same areas of damage over and over again and it makes people think everything was destroyed. The fact is that earthquake was a 7.0 and 99.99999999999% of things were not damaged. Life is all the luck of the draw. When we go out for lunch today I'm more likely to be killed in a car accident than to be killed in a fire or earthquake.
I do appreciate your concern, though.

Holy crap...3 years ago? Boy, that went by fast! I just remember you having to evac, and it seems like yesterday! Was that earthquake the one that jacked up the highway and messed up the World Series? I was watching the game when it happened.
