Oh shit today's the 22nd. Today's the day where a megaquake splits LA from California, and then we can turn it into a giant prison just like in that Kurt Russel movie.

Nobody can predict Earthquakes yet with any real type of accuracy, let alone the actual day.

The two fault lines to watch are the San Andreas and the Cascadia. I estimate they'll both go off within the next 30-50 years. They could earlier, but I estimate 30-50.

Isn't there a saying about trying to use logic to understand people who are illogical? I'm pretty sure there is.
