Those service options are kind of like what should be posted outside the balloting areas for every election.

Do they serve beer and hamburgers where you vote.

They don't serve anything around here.

Just themselves.

The Braille sign is ancient, but the bus stop is new to me, albeit conceptually old. Reminds of the 80's when folks would send in invoices to DoD for just about anything regardless of delivery or even a contract, and still get paid.

Seen in print (my textbooks): If I am remembering my undergrad Geology classes well, and I'm pretty sure I am, those two earthquakes, these past two days, in California, may indicate Alaska is next, then Hawaii, and perhaps even Japan, considering that Pacific Plate. It moves what I'll refer to as "laterally," officially termed a "Strike-plate Fault," sliding along and rubbing against - alongside - California (not up and down like a rollercoaster) which means there would be movement, eventually, all along its perimeter as it rubs against the continent, etc.

Time for a little reading from the Book of Cthulhu...

Why would anybody?

Apparently California got hit with another 7.1 Friday evening. The experts are predicting the big one is yet to come.

February 1971 6:55 AM we were living in Garden Grove when we were woke up with the 6.5 Sylmar quake. Our bed was vibrating across the room. We could hear things falling throughout the house.

64 people were killed and a multitude of damage was done.

Bad idea to ignore the Elder Gods and any of the Outsiders.

'Tis True...
They're back.
The hills are alive.
Shakeytown tremors continue...

Shakytown wiggles a little.

(The following composed 04JUL2019,)

Got to experience my third earthquake(EQ) (swarm?, maybe?) in SoCal/LaLaLand.
(Ridgecrest, 6.4, 10:33 PDT) produced about a five second floor wiggle
in the East San Fernando Valley, and a preemtion of most local/cable programming
for several hours.

(From Ridgecrest), Lots of air/drone shots, big-box shake-ups, swimming pool sloshes,
winding down with 20 somethings relating their first "...I feel the earth move under my
feet,,,", and NO commercials.
Grocery stores were packed, being warned to prepare for 'the big one'.

(San Andreas is still on tap,) .)

---------

Altho Not quite as much fun as EQ#1 (1971, Sylmar), or EQ#2, (1994, Northridge),
an excellent diversion/addition/alternative was Tanks on Trains
(+flatbeds) for Trump + Friends' military
display in DC being unloaded the night before, and being dissemenated the afternoon
after.

---------

(Updates + edits - 06JUL2019)

Definate Swarm.
EQ itti-bitties numbering in the hundreds and counting.
North Hills/SFV tremors much more intense (~8x)
EQ#3 passes muster.

Seen from Winston's screen...
All recent previous EQ's prior to the 05JUL2019, 20:19-21, 7.1 magnitude are now being
considered 'prequakes', (until a bigger one comes along).


Repeats & new views of yesterday's events after including gov
address/declarations/promises of relief
4 Ridgecrest area residents,
& CalTech EQ explainationss 4 nubee newscasters.
Last night's 'upgrader' quake was actually a double header, a 6.9,
immediately followed by the 7.1.
Nature's double header was not enough to pause or interrupt the Dodgers/Padres game in
Chavez Ravine, altho ending a 20 year drought in SoCal EQ activity.
Center field camera did a little baseball boogie woogie.
NB Metrolink #265 delayed for track inspection, no problems found, proceeded.

Hard to believe these made the national news. I think of them as free thrill rides.
