we have been under a "when" not "if" mentality as long as I have lived here. just prior to buying this place I had had a project wiring the FEMA center, and paid extremely close attention to all of the maps detailing the lehars from the volcanoes, tsunami paths, and known existing fault lines. I'm in just about as good a place as possible as one can be in western Washington. given that, though, one cannot become a total hermit, and it is necessary to leave the safety cocoon occasionally
