California Building Standards Commission History of code changes 1905 to present: [link to www.bsc.ca.gov] About the California Building Codes & Earthquakes On February 9, 1971 an earthquake hit the San Fernando Valley, just north of Los Angeles. It registered a 6.4 on the Richter scale, but had a seismic moment of 6.7, and did tremendous damage to the area. 58 people were killed and 2,543 were suffered injuries. Two major hospitals were destroyed and four freeways and overpasses collapsed. The State of California decided after that earthquake to make significant enhancements to its building codes pertaining to earthquakes.

[link to www.seismic.ca.gov] Thanks J, good info.I enjoy the stats you bring up, a lot of stuff I wouldn't normally come across. Lets just hope one doesn't hit in the area of the massive methane leak. A big Shear pressure release could spark off an explosion of catastrophc magnitude. That area worries me |

joinca User ID: 46553057 United States 02/02/2016 10:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why underground natural gas storage??? How to balance natural gas deliveries, pipeline packing and peaking. Michigan has most underground natural gas storage in U.S. LANSING, MI — Michigan has more active underground natural gas storage reservoirs of the type that is leaking near Los Angeles than any other U.S. state and some of the infrastructure is more than 70 years old. The facilities are similar to a storage well in southern California that's been leaking methane gas since Oct. 23 and isn't expected to be capped for months; an environmental disaster that has prompted an emergency declaration and forced the temporary relocation of thousands of people.

I don't talk about things like this with others either, so I feel blessed as well. And sort of relieved that I'm not the only one feeling this way.

You having any luck with the docs Simple ? I finally got to see my PCP today. : ) Had a (more than full) physical and some blood work done. We also discussed what I had been doing with that hematologist and I explained my feelings towards her. My PCP is awesome. She's just very genuine. She's going to get copies of all of my test results (blood work, bone marrow biopsy, ultrasound, CT scan, etc.) that were done with the hematologist so that she can review them. She looked me in the eyes and said 'I'm going to help you.' That meant more to me than I can even begin to explain. Because I believe her. For now I will be waiting for her to get my labs and results back from today's tests, as well as all of those other previous results from testing done with the hematologist. How are you Gomez? You were in part of my dream last night. Not you physically, but it was as though my dream involved me being on GLP (go figure lol) and you had posted something. It was on my mind pretty heavily this morning. But as with most dreams, the details have faded a lot from my memory. I hope all is well. ~*Ride the Wave*~ |
