Speaking as a non-Southern Californian... at least your neck of the woods has an obvious and inescapable conclusion. You're going to have a tremendous earthquake on the San Andreas, which will barely touch Southern California physically. It will probably level LA and SF though, at the very least. I suspect that faced with the prospect of cleaning that mess, and rebuilding, suddenly we'll all find our copies of 'Cadillac Desert'.
