Seriously? You’re reporting on a .9 earthquake??? THOSE HAPPEN ALL THE TIME!!!!!!!
C’mon big one! ~ two thirds probability of a massive quake on the Hayward fault in the next 30 years.
It’s going to RAPE this campus something proper!
Hopefully it will hit the day after they finish the stadium renovation. It’s going to split that bitch in half, making their beautiful-but-not-yet-paid-for arena look as though it had given birth to the Leviathan.
