Very few inland waterways, such as Puget Sound, would be at the same

I wouldn't get too cocky.

From the article:

Martin said there's a low likelihood of a tsunami hitting Seattle.
Walsh said a magnitude-7.3 quake would occur, on average, about once in

If there's a good chance that I'll live another 2500 years, I'm almost

Last 7.3 was 2499.9 years ago.
