Odd as it may seem, it’s not such a bad idea. When I was living in Illinois, I heard an offhand remark on a science program that that area of the country was “overdue” for an earthquake already, and that was twenty-five years ago. I don’t know what science might be behind that assertion, but if I have any readers in that area, the warning is probably worth paying some attention to. Though knowing humanity, no one will until it’s too late.
