The pool at the hotel we were staying at was jiggling.<BR/><BR/>It may be that the memories aren't far enough removed yet for people to be willing to remember it in any substantial way. It may also be that people are tired of remembering it - newspaper "Tragedy: 1/5/X Years On" stories have a habit of feeling trite after a while.<BR/><BR/>I almost suspect it's a regional difference, though. I imagine little to no one who actually remembers the 1906 SF quake is still alive, yet this is still remembered. People from outside California seem to associate the whole state with earthquakes, but when I tell people I meet here in England that I'm originally from the SF area their eyes go a bit wide and the subject crops up quicker. LA, despite Northridge, doesn't seem to carry that reputation. What it does remind people of, though, is the wildfires.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09203619594391304128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1488098001848302815.post-12143184877160634592009-01-18T06:11:00.000-08:002009-01-18T06:11:00.000-08:00You may personally have to collect some stories fr...You may personally have to collect some stories from the people you know (tape recorder?), if they agree.
