    It's not that the ground motions in 1906 were significantly larger than those in 1989—it's that the area experiencing intense shaking was much, much greater. We don't know if the next rupture will look like 1906 earthquake, but we know that many of the same areas hit hard in 1906, like San Francisco, Santa Rosa, and the Santa Cruz mountains will be hit hard again in the next large earthquake on the San Andreas Fault .

If you look at the Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection now, it doesn't tell the story of what was happening during the '30s and '40s. While Myron prefers the representational, I think you can see he likes artists who pushed realism as close to abstraction as possible.

Even Vance Walberg (Fresno City College basketball coach) said Jackson was like a man playing against boys. And there is no doubt how good Clovis West is, but I thought our players were kind of intimidated and I was disappointed that we didn't compete better.

(The Badgers) were throwing up a lot of contested shots, and we were getting rebounds and pushing it down. We played our game.
