Isn't Japan even more seismologically active than the Seattle area? They seem to do fine with high speed rail.

- mulmen 10y agoI'm not sure how the two regions compare but I don't think seismic activity alone is the only factor to consider. Much of the Seattle area is at risk of land slides and although we have fewer noticeable quakes we may still see more severe ones with less frequency.
