I lived in El Centro for several years during the early 80s...we had a bad one centered south of Mexicali then just like yesterdays. The modern county building came down while the centuries old courthouse didn't even flinch. Interstate 8 was closed inbetween El Centro and Holtville for months due to bigassed cracks. The All-American canal along the border broke out of its banks and flooded some Mexicali neighborhoods.

It really is a hive for earthquakes down there...you never get used to it.
