We all know you are a lady and I would take you home to meet my "mother" You are right about no insurance coverage...I read my policy and was shocked that I was not covered for earth movements...even with earthquake insurance..from what my neigbours are saying, the insurance companies do not even return their calls... Fortunately so far. I am on the right side of the street and now we have a better ocean view.... Nearest major fault is at the bottom of this mountain...less than a mile from here...California uses valleys caused by the earthquake fault lines to build the Interstates and bridges.... its too dangerous to put buildings on them... ..... In spite of all that land around here goes for about $4 - 6 MM per acre....Go figure.. Why build.. the ocean view is great, especially if the houses in front of you slide down the mountain.. the weather is fabulous 350 -360 days a year (sunny 72F - 22C every day) and disasterous for about 5 -15 days... so you forget easily... They let me have a building permit for an 85' tower.. so it can't be that bad.. and with the disasterous days (Floods, Fires, Earthquakes, Landslides) its a great place to practice Ham Radio EMCOMM because we really are needed... Makes it easy to justify buying the IC-7000 as every vehicle should be equiped with mobile HF, VHF and UHF communications for EMCOMM. __________________________________________________________ Howard S.
