re: #196 Flying Squirrel Girl

To some extent, the reality is you trade one set of hazards for another. Move to CA to avoid tornadoes? Now you have earthquakes. Move to the eastern seaboard? Hurricanes! Down to the Southwest, well, now you have risk of flash flooding when it does rain.

What gets me is the fact that people don’t prepare for the hazards, whether it’s having a safe room or basement in the midwest, or having a plan and emergency supplies in CA, or a pre-mapped escape route in case of flooding/knowledge of where higher ground is.
