Universal Coordinated Time UTC – ZULU is a 24 hour clock . There are extremes in preparedness, of course. As a basis of my work I use the 2015 Profile of Earthquake Risk in the District of North Vancouver by Earthquake Canada, wherein they state that there is 30% chance of a M7.3 in the middle of the Salish Sea in the next 50 years, that will bring down 839 buildings, just in the District of North Vancouver.

If you are not mentally and physically in good shape, not frightened to do all of this on your own, not fully equipped and practiced in outdoor survival skills, then don't even try to do most any of this. If a really BIG earthquake hits expect to live by yourself, outside, for a long, long time.

You know that I delve deeply into dark subjects. It is important for me to let you know that I also look at the beautiful, brighter, lighter, sunnier side; and maintain a realistic sense of balance and perspective.

Please note that, to you, the video may seem out of focus. I am videographing the middle space, between the camera lens and the flower, to look for the plant pollinators and their predators. Those guys are very small and very fast. There are two photograph albums linked below that are in better focus.

    - You will notice that some of the photographs in this photo study are quite dim. It was getting dark and I was hoping to catch some of the night pollinators: ants, bats, moths etc. and I did not want bright light to scare them away.
