A few years back, I worked/volunteered at a museum. One of my favorite exhibits to operate was the Earthquake simulator, which, every three minutes, would simulate the next earthquake in a list of ten historical quakes.

There was a family (almost elderly) visiting all the way from /Ukraine/, who were like, "How do you even /live/ in an earthquake zone? I'd be too scared!"

And I nearly asked how they managed to live in Ukraine, what with Pripjat and Russia and everything, but decided to keep my trap shut.
