While I was checking out the Pakistani earthquake details at the USGS site yesterday, I noticed this article released 10/28/08.

The opening reads.
What if you knew that a magnitude 7.8 earthquake would happen in less than three weeks? In a new video interview, USGS earthquake scientist Dr. Lucy Jones explains that millions of Southern Californians will be preparing as if they do know, thanks to the Great Southern California ShakeOut.
The ShakeOut takes place in Southern California on Nov. 13, 2008.

I just spoke w/ some friends in LA who were unaware of the drill, so I thought I'd throw this out there.

Now I'm waiting to hear about the new madrid counterpart here in the midwest.
