4. Growing up in SF...

that was one of my big fears -- having "The Big One" hit while I was in the bathtub! :D

That did happen to a friend of mine who is originally from El Salvador. He was in the shower when one of those major, 7+ quakes hit. The house was coming down around him and he just ran for it out into the street, stark naked. He said, when your house is about to entomb you, "naked" just doesn't matter that much to you.
