Frequent visits to the beach with all the tsunami evacuation routes marked taught me about getting to higher ground. :) I got 60%, but I bet I would kick ass on anything related to volcano safety.
I got 50 percent. But why I even took the quiz is a mystery. Hey I live on the frozen Tundra and have no plans of visiting the West Coast any time soon!
I got 7. We don't have earthquakes in Minnesota, thankfully. If I come across a blizzard awareness quiz I'll have to send it your way, Gino.
The worst earthquake in US history occured under the Mississippi River, as I recall ... 1860s sometime I think ... ;).
Hey Jade, did you ever see the sticker-graffiti that turned the tsunami-running-man into the Superman we all thought he looked like? someone printed up some red capes ... ;). Last time I was at the coast they had changed the signs ...
I got 80%. (Lived in LA when I was little.)
kr: that would be 1820, there abouts. near three corners, where IL,KY,MO meet, or something like that.
there's a lake there that used to be part of the MS river before the quake changed it course.
there was a history channel show about it.
You are referring to the New Madrid earthquake in Missouri. It rang church bells in Philadelphia I think. If Memphis had been around at that time, it would have been done for.
I got 6 of 10. Not too good, but I suppose it's not too bad, being that I have never knowingly been in an earthquake.
yeah, thats the one!
Eagle scout over here scored a 40%. Yikes.
turn in your sash.
KR - I never paid attention to tsunami signs until after I moved up here. Though, in Santa Cruz they were fond of changing the people crossing signs... they took surfboard stickers and stuck them on the people so it looked like surfers crossing the street. Which was actually quite logical... and I don't think anybody every bothered to fix/replace those.
Jade: heh ;)!
