While we we're all happy to hear that LA made it through yesterday's quake largely intact, Gavin must have been exceptionally thrilled. Why, pray tell?

Seismic safety is a hot topic around these parts— as the subject of retrofitting San Francisco's old buildings is back on the table, the city couldn't ask for better advertising. [SF Gate]
