Sans Mexican Earthquake Analysis

For the people of Sans Francisco, CA earthquake is routine practice as the area is tectonically active. History revealed that this area is seismically active and major earthquake was hit in 1906.

On the other hand, to consider only the prediction of only one geologist that earthquake is going to hit within 48 hours is not good. However, for a decision party there must be an emergency safety plan. (Xinde)
