Re: Pond scum subspecies said by sticks435:That's because you live in one of the most temperate climates in the United States, not Tornado Alley. Your storms are probably nothing compared to what we get here. But we have earthquakes up the kazoo. With sufficient lateral displacement of the earth, you can kiss your buried utilities goodbye.

 | If you are near the immediate fault line, then buried could be a problem. But that is a pretty insignificant amount of area.
Buried utilities have proven themselves over and over again. |

There is no "fault line". There multiple fault zones. Three of the big ones, nearby, are the San Andreas, the Hayward, and the Calaveras. There are hundreds of smaller ones. -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum |
