SoCal Connected: Earthquake Special

by KCET

on April 29, 2010 2:50 AM

Fact or Fiction? - SoCal Connected separates fact from fiction when it comes to the science of predicting earthquakes. John Larson speaks with leading seismologist Susan Hough about how close scientists really are to developing an earthquake warning system.

Risky Buildings - Experts believe so-called "killer buildings," built of non-ductile concrete before the mid-70's, pose an immediate and deadly threat in the event of a serious quake. There is pressure on the city of Los Angeles to do a serious inventory of these buildings.

Commentary - Marcos Villatoro compares our reaction to earthquakes in L.A. to quakes in the Third World.
