Natural Disaster

I read an article about the Northridge Earthquake in Los Angeles, California in 1994.  I chose to look up this article because I was in that earthquake.  At the time, I lived in California and when I was 18 months old the earthquake happened.  The article was written by the Earthquake Engineering Research Center at the University of California Berkely.  It gave the major details of the natural disaster.  At 4:31 am on monday, January 17, 1994 the earthquake struck.  57 people died,  and there were at least 5,000 injuries.  There was more than $20 billion in property damage.  This was the costliest seismic disaster in U.S. history.  I think it is a very interesting natural disaster, and even more interesting that I was in it.
