Actually all of the planning I have seen in Missouri about a major earthquake around New Madrid fault or St. Louis results in major casualties being sent all the way to Indianapolis. There are very few burn patient beds available nationwide. I felt a weak earthquake in St. Louis in about 1978. I though my alarm went off early or it could have been the F-104's on afterburner. I don't know why everybody gets crazy, the last tornado alert I took a bottle of wine down to the basement and played some pool. If it hits that's the breaks. Mike mmcfadden(a)cmh.edu
