Mom doesn't want me to go on vacation!
Here's the conversation this morning on the phone with my Mother. She's 86, but still with it..i think
Mom: I don't think you should go on vacation.
Me: Why??
Mom: Too many earthquakes down there in the Islands.
Me: Mom, I'm going on vacation!
Mom: Don't you fly into Puerto Rica?
Me: No, I have a direct flight.
Mom: Well, you're still too close to Puerto Rico and I heard on the news that a fault line runs right through it.
Me: Mom, we could have an earthquake here.
Mom: There's more a chance you having it down in the Islands.
Me: Maybe, but I'm going on vacation.
Mom: Do you have life insurace? Do you have a will?
Me: Mom!!! Stop!!!!
Mom: I'm not taking care of the cats if something happens to you...no way.
Me: Ok Mom
Gotta love her.

Not to alarm you, (but just in case you don't know) St John is situated within the Puerto Rico Trench - same (I believe) as the San Andreas.
From Wikipedia............."The island of Puerto Rico lies immediately to the south of the fault zone and the trench. The trench is 800 kilometers (500 mi) long and has a maximum depth of 8,605 meters (28,232 ft) at Milwaukee Deep, which is the deepest point in the Atlantic Ocean".
