Anyone living in an earthquake area should have those supplies on hand at all times. They should be replaced every year, and if one has pets they need to be provided for as well. It is just common sense.

OTW isn't it amazing an earthquake in Alaska can create waves that come all the way across the ocean and can effect other continents. We watched a movie about the 1964 Good Friday Earthquake (which leveled most of Anchorage and the surrounding areas of Seward and Valdez, then it burned), and there were stories of people in Hawaii and Crescent City, CA that were washed away by tsunamis.

I just finished reading "Volcano Cowboys" and they were dealing with Mt. St. Helens. All the research had been done on volcanos in Hawaii, which are quite different than those in the Cascades. Predicting volcanic eruptions and earthquakes is some crazy business.
