What, me worry?

P.S. @Ojai Sam, did you feel it where you are?

No, but we were driving to breakfast at the time. How about you?

Definitely. I was sitting at my desk at home, and noticed a worrisome wavy, rolling feeling, as though I was disoriented. I stood up, and the feeling kept going. I asked my tenant, who looked up from his newspaper, and he said, "No." Immediately, he said, "I'm feeling it, now. Yeah, it's an earthquake." Neighbors felt it; my son did not. It lasted most of a minute. No violent shaking, just rolling. back-and-forth.

I worry that one day California will drop off into the ocean, decimating the tech industry and triggering a global economic depression that will take decades to recover from. But hey, I'm such a cheerful person.

Edit: second worse scenario is that due to the earthquake, the United States loses superpower status and China becomes the #1 nation.

Hey, don't worry about it. Florida will be a tiny island by then.

Hey, don't worry about it. Florida will be a tiny island by then.

And I will no longer be troubled by such considerations.

Same, although I didn't even watch the whole ep. Just couldn't get into it, I guess.
