One of the safest predictions around is that there will be another big earthquake in the fault-riddled Bay Area around San Francisco…
The San Francisco Chronicle reports that major earthquakes on the Hayward Fault occur on average every 140 years, which means that the next big tremblor there is due Oct. 21 2008. While the article is replete with things like “losses of more than $1.5 trillion”, they avoid sensationalism such as “Silicon Valley turns into silicon dioxide!”
