SpaceGhost Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/07/29/earthquake.ca/index.html LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- A magnitude-5.8 earthquake has struck just east of Los Angeles, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The quake's epicenter was about 2 miles southwest of Chino Hills and about 5 miles southeast of Diamond Bar, the USGS said. Chino Hills is about 30 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. The center was about 7.6 miles deep. In general, earthquakes centered closer to the Earth's surface produce stronger shaking and can cause more damage than those further underground. A 5.8 magnitude quake is considered by the USGS to be "moderate," which can cause slight damage to buildings and others structures. About 500 can happen globally each year, the survey says. CNN's Ed Lavandera was at Disneyland with his family and felt the temblor. He said the shaking lasted about 5 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hal Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 ...Why dont you like California? It's a complete failure at pretty much everything. The only thing I like about California is, it takes a lot of the failures away from here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devils Advocate Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Because I can. I wasnt questioning your ability to like or dislike an entire state; I was asking for the reasons behind your hatred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hal Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 You're the one who threw his opinion out there, answer my question before posing your own. I already answered the question. Answer mine instead of dodging because you didn't like the answer I gave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devils Advocate Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Okay so... making an incredibly broad, stupid statement now qualifies as an answer? ...Oh, wait. I forgot that I was posting on CR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You asked why I hate California. My answer is that they (being the population that makes up the state) fail at pretty much everything. If you wanted to know more about my answer, you would be required to start a new line of questioning. Care to tell me why I shouldn't hate California?
