I was at Coalinga, CA for a 6.2 in 1983 & was on the Sausalito flats for the 6.9 Loma Prieta. Both times I bolted outside at the 1st hint. I can't help it. Just don't want the dang building falling in on me. Gotta fight that urge if I'm ever in the City during a quake.... the falling glass thing. Every Planeteer should know exactly how to shut off the gas to their abode & get in the habit of shutting it off once you get outside in a quake. If I were brave enough to be a stay-inside person I'd be way scared of a gas leak. Eerie as hell in 1989 looking across the Bay at night & watching the SF Marina district burn from the gas leak fires.
