    Anyhow, it's more likely that the plate tectonics will rip a good chunk of the west coast off the continent and move it north, but that's going to be a long time from now.

    According to the USGS.

    10% chance in the next 50 years is worse than our chances of winning a championship in the next 50 years.

    But the thing is that the earthquake will happen the year we are set to win a championship.

    Isn't I-5 to the left of the Rose Garden? So wouldn't that make it on the west side? I mean, I guess it's like, circled by I-5. But when you drive by it going south, its on the right..

    Btw... I took a geology class a couple years ago. And they said by 2050 it will go up from 10% to 50%. So uhh... yay? I'll be 67 by then... and probably not living in this area. Traveling, hopefully.

    Egads! You're right! Since it is east of the Willamette, I always think of Moda Center being "eastside". Plus, when I come up I-5 from the south, I exit to the east to get to Moda center, but them loop back west to park near the stadium. So yes, it is west of I-5 by about 100 feet.

    I'll be 89, and if still alive, I'll be hiking up my Bermuda shorts and wearing socks with my sandals someplace like Scottsdale or Palm Springs. So, pretty much same as now, just in a warmer, drier climate.

    I'll account for a fair number with my trusty hunting rifle. I need food, shelter, medicine and gasoline.

    His name's not Shirley. Surely you knew that.
