9 San Francisco stores are 'fronts' for illegal activity, city attorney says https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/sf-stores-fronts-21327370.php #sfgate #news
sgt1372Here's an article from the #SFGate regarding #EarthquakeMyths. I agree with all of them except for #DropCoverHoldOn . . . which is oversimplified.
If you know anything about guns, there is the concept of #concealment vs #cover. Concealment means you can't be seen by a possible attacker. Cover means that you are protected behind something that will stop a bullet.
In an earthquake, taking "cover" under a table or another "solid object" may or may not protect you from the roof falling down upon you.
If it's the best thing you can do, so be it but, in order to be fully protected, you need to get under something that withstand a complete collapse of the building you're in &, no matter what happens, DO NOT run outside where there is no protection whatsoever, especially if you are in a dense skyscraper dominated environment like downtown #SF . . .

Here are two articles on #reading that deserve to be re-tooted not just boosted:
Personally, I read a lot, just not #books.
I'm on the Net everyday reading articles like these (and others), as well as news published by the #NYT, the #SFChronical & #SFGate, as well as those published by other smaller independent news agencies in SF, like #MissionLocal, #SFist and #The Voice but, while I still buy them, I seldom take the time to read books lately.
Why? I'm not sure but spending time on the Net has a lot to do with it because when I read a book, it's usually while listing to #music out of my #vinyl or #CD collection, which I also haven't been doing much lately.
So, I think it's time to start listening to music & reading books again.
