I just wanted to thank everyone who provides information on this site.  I have learned so much more than I've ever known and I thought I was up to date on plate tectonics.   But as we've all learned, there is always room for more knowledge.  I try to speak about the PS with friends but most really believe this is all made up, sorry for them.  I'm an armchair archeologist and everything that has been said here is correct and with my knowledge acquired  on my own it is in front of our eyes.  Anyone who pays attention to the planet can see what is going on, I find it fascinating how many don't pay attention to the planet yet run around screaming recycle, recycle.  How about using less so one doesn't need to recycle, there is an idea.  Sorry I'm not writing to bash people but it pains me to see so many blind people who's priorities are superficial and wouldn't be useful after the shift.  I guess we need to be strong and be available to those who might ask for help or assistance.  I believe this is what is going to happen with me. I'm preparing the best I can.  I have an inflatable kayak I intend to use if needed but put the word out that I'm looking for a hard kayak.  Of course just by having one doesn't mean I'll be fine but I do hope if I need it, it will be good to have one.  Since I live in LA there are going to be many running around aimlessly not knowing what happened and what to do.  I believe staying calm will help immensely and paying attention to what is going on around us.  I wish everyone the best all the love I can provide.  Stay strong look out for each other while taking care of yourself.  Eat together, sing together and meditate with each other.  We'll get through this and be better than ever if we can remain positive.   Faith, have faith in your ability to get through something you've never experienced before, your faith will surprise you while your ability will astonish you.
