Angela, that is not the same siren that would go off if there were a tsunami. The only siren we have for that is located in a spot where very few people would ever be able to hear it. I wish I was kidding but I'm not. Like Linda said, most of us will be going for a big long swim when the big one comes.

Mr. Kenny D, this earthquake is not connected with global warming. It is connected with so called "Full Moon - Earthquake Theory". I just read a few minutes ago about an strong earthquake in Japan.

To HMMN... I believe there is a warning that goes off every Wed. I know for a fact there is one that goes off in Bandon every week.

I can't believe the negative nellies on these blogs haven't tried to stop plate tectonics in the bay area yet...

To Enrik
Normally, you would be correct. But this global warming thing has fouled that up too.

To Hmmmmmmm. We have a siren, but not everyone can hear it. So what's the point, the point is we'll all get to go swimming together!

Isn't it lovely that we have $1000 garbage cans, a soon to be defunct 20 Million airport, and yet - NO FREAKING SIRENS to warn us of a tsunami if there was one coming!!
Boy do we have some mixed up priorities!
