Wow you are right about the activity. Tons of quakes still going on right now. The last one was less than an hour ago. Great link I didn't know about that live map!

If the wildfires don't get your house the mudslides will if you live in the hills. It's a fire dependent ecosystem, many of the seeds need fire to germinate.
And we know that in the 1600's a giant tsunami washed inland over 70 miles.
Between the fires, the mudslides, the earthquakes and the very real tsunami threat, why?
Sure the weather is always nice, but LA was and is a desert. It takes 40 gallons of water per day for each palm tree, not to mention all the lawns and golf courses.
I saw a guy on the news last year crying because it was the 3rd time he had lost his house in the last 15 years.
I'm sorry, but I had a hard time feeling sympathy for him.
If I build a new house on a snowbank every winter I shouldn't get bailed out in spring when my foundation melts.
