Hahahaha, my boyfriend just reminded me of this.
Last Sunday night, we had quite a shaker of an earthquake - only 4.7 but it shook the house like buggery for 20 seconds (which is a LONG time when you don't know if it's "the big one" coming).
Once I'd calmed down (3 beers and 6 cigs later), he found me on the computer looking up earthquake survival kits........

Didn't buy one, but have since gone and strapped all my freestanding stuff to the wall!
