There's about a 76% chance that the San Francisco Bay Area could experience a 7.2 magnitude earthquake within the next 30 years, according to some recent reports.

Experts from the USGS think that the biggest earthquake threat is from the Hayward Fault, rather than the better-known San Andreas Fault.

That fault is like a "tectonic time bomb," according to scientists.

And I just happen to be in the Bay Area this week on company business.  Couldn't they have waited until next week to publish this article, when I'm safely back in Texas...?
