Depending on where this is, you can think of it as generations of people have already picked out and settled in the naturally safe spots. What's left then are the less desirable, potentially riskier locations.

Oh crap, I sunny-16'd during the partial portion of the eclipse and dropped down to 4/30 @ 400 iso during totality. Wonder how my shots are going to turn out. :(

That's one of the ideas of Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT / NERT). During the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, citizens banded together and helped each other other because emergency services were overwhelmed. Afterwards, the

Few days late, sorry. Just wanted to say those are all good points. If it's comparable to a sleeper train, like you mentioned, I agree that it could be a feasible option.

Ah I see (and I don't have an answer). Is Jansport "iconic" or is it just "ubiquitous"? I'd say it's the latter. A better comparison might be Victorinox deciding too offshore Swiss Army knives to Korea or

Fjallraven is new to America, but old to Sweden--think of it as Swedish Jansport. But to your point, I don't think Americans have the same level of attachment to school bags as the Japanese do.
