The "NYC v. LA" thread from awhile back got me to thinking that some Compendiumites may live in that area. Everyone okay?

I'd never seen it get this much TV coverage, though. It's even drowning out international news.

To compare, 1.3 million people evacuated the New Orleans metropolitan area for Hurricane Katrina.

They might be able to rig toilets to explode, but these are low-flow toilets (California being almost perpetually in some sort of drought). As such, it wouldn't do much.

HAHAHA! Wait...I guess that's not really something to laugh at. Well, at least I don't live in CA...in fact, I live where water's fairly plentiful most of the year! Hooray!
