True.  This is one of the many conceivable situations where an early warning
system could be useful.  But it would not be cost-effective in isolation -
basically, an early warning system has to be justified in more general terms,
then hospitals can simply receive the signal, at negligible cost.

Some other uses of early warning:
1) construction sites (everybody out of the ditch on the alarm, etc.)
2) nuclear power (drop the rods if expected acceleration is very high)
3) electrical distribution - re-route power in anticipation of downed lines
   (There is a scenario for a quake on the San Andreas north of LA, where
   all the mains coming across the fault are severed, and the power pulse
   travelling back north from the breaks takes out most of the western grid.
   A power engineer could say how realistic that might be.)
4) Bring emergency generators on-line (hospitals, emergency facilities, etc.)
5) Phone company - for example, the Whittier Narrows quake, despite being
   rather small, knocked over 300,000 phones off the hook simultaneously.
   The phone system overloaded, and it took a long time to correct.
6) elevators - send them to the ground floor and leave the doors open.
7) fire stations - move the trucks and ambulances out of the buildings.
8) manufacturing - any delicate equipment could be returned to its locked-down
   state.
9) computers - critical systems could be taken down smoothly to avoid loss
   of data and/or inconsistant data
10) media - they love to be the first to know.
11) general public - curiosity, peace of mind, safety (put down that pan of
    boiling water), whatever.

Anyway, I think early warning is justified, given the many possible existing
uses.  And there are undoubtedly uses that cannot be anticipated.  (the only
disadvantages are 1) possibility of panic and 2) possibility of false alarms).

About 0.  However, the possibility of surgery during an earthquake is 100%.
(the difference is due to the fact that at any given time, in any region
of CA, there are a few OR's active.  So there will be surgery during a major
quake.  However, quakes are so infrequent, and surgery so frequent, that the
chance of a major quake during any particular surgery is almost 0).

Related to this and quite relevant to those of us in the East Bay,
I'm somewhat curious about the recent small quakes near the San Leandro/
Oakland border.  The first one caused a bit of damage to chimneys right
in the epicentral "neighborhood" (literally - only one street showed signs
of damage).  The next one was a week or two later and slightly smaller,
but if I remember correctly, the weekly report said it was in almost 
the exact same location.  I realize that the Hayward fault is always
grumbling a bit, but these successive quakes in the same spot got me thinking,
especially after someone told me that strong East Bay quakes
have sometimes followed strong South bay quakes (i.e. Loma Prieta) rather
closely.

Is this worthy of comment, or am I just paranoid?  Thanks for your opinions.

Hi,
	I am looking at the sfbay.gif file posted with the
USGS weekly report for the week of January 15.  I notice that
ther is a cluster of six quakes with a magnitude 2.2 or 
greater at an apparently single spot near the San Andreas
east of Watsonville (Hollister?).  It has occurred to me that
this spot has experienced a large number of small quakes over
the past several weeks (based on these reports).  Is there 
any explanation for this?  Should people be concerned about
the number of small quakes?  I guess no one can make a 
prediction, and if you sit on the fault, a large number
of small ones will be unsettling anyway, but i was just
wondering if there is any research behind this type of
string of quakes. (note also that this is miles south of
the epicenter of Loma Prieta)...

No, existims early warning systems are not 100% reliable, nor will they
ever be.  there will still be some small number of false alarms, and
some small number of missed events.  To a certain extent, I believe
the numbers of these could be made arbitrarily small depending on how
much is invested.

The other main advantage of a centralized early warning system is that it could
provide more than just an alarm.  Expected time to heavy shaking and
expected amplitude of heavy shaking could also be made available.  All this
with the minimal broadcast information (location, time, magnitude).  A
fancy receiver with synthesized voice could be made that would announce
something like "15 seconds, intensity VIII".

A P-wave detector connected to an alarm is more unreliable, and cannot
determine the expected intensity or the time when it will arrive.

WELCOME TO CALIFORNIA! ;-)

As it stands, every time I make a MAJOR move (more than 200 miles),
there has been a major earthquake within 6 months!

1971 - Family moved to N. Orange Co.
	Sylmar quake
1985 - Hubby and I move to Indiana.
	4.9 shaker (I think)
1987 - Move back to Torrance, CA
	5.9 Whittier Narrows quake
1989 - Moved to San Jose
	7.2 Loma Prieta quake
1992 - Moved to Las Vegas and back
	(Can't say the 5.0 was major, but I have cracks in my walls!)
	Calaveras

Needless to say, we have decided to never move a long distance again.
Therefore, another major earthquake will not occur near where I move
(We can hope!).

Cheers!

 Dear World,

	I have realized this morning that my financial deprivation has led 

me into a situation of great emotional need- I MUST HAVE a video tape of 

the inaugural festivities I've missed, due to lack of cable TV! <sneef> 

Of course I'm so poor I don't have a VCR either, but I have friends who 

do...(Who I will entice with food, then drug, then use theirs while they

sleep it off, hee hee)



	Anyhow, I be the purveyor of the "Cool Misc Stuff" lists, so I

have tons of stuff I'm trying to sell (an extensive, eclectic mix), many 

items of which I would offer in trade to someone who could make me a copy

of their tape (doesn't even have to look great, I'll even send you a blank

tape, if you'd like!)



Here's the primary stuff I *yearn* to see:

Parade Footage, especially of: 	precision lawn chair team

			   	"Elvis lives" float

				break dancing marching band

				any other humorous type stuff



Inaugural/Party stuff:	musical entertainers, esp Babs Streisand & 

							Fleetwood Mac!

		    	Clinton playing his horn at one of the parties

			Womun who read poem at inauguration

			Clinton's actual acceptance speech



A decent copy of most/all of the above would be a highly desired tradeable

thing to me (sorry I'm too broke to pay you)...but any copy of inaugurally 

related footage is most welcome- oh please help me fill this need in my 

soul! Oh, and I can email you my list(s), or else look in misc.forsale,

su.market, us.forsale.misc, ba.market.misc...for the items which I 

currently purvey- A blessing on your immortal soul for any who can help!

Try calling the USC Ticket office at 213-740-GOSC.  The procedure for
buying student tickets for away games varies by game and by year.  In
general, you need a student activity card and then tickets are either
selected by lottery or first come-first serve among those with a
student activity card.  I don't know when tickets are on sale to the
general public, but student tickets are generally not available until
sometime into the fall semester.
