100 Years Ago

So were any of you around 100 years ago when San Francisco had the great earthquake (I guess that means you Robert :) )

So really there are two things I would like to point out: It's been awhile since we had a major, damaging quake in California so I guess we are due. 2) Are we prepared. I know building codes are strict here but that won't stop damage from occuring.

My question I guess is this: Since it's been a long time since a major quake how prepared are we for the next quake? I know I have an emergency kit in my car and little things like that but what about areas who are due big quakes like Memphis. Who's buildings are as up to code as they are here.
