Oh Crap. Seismic Retrofit

There was an article in the local newspaper this week. Apparently the building we live in is going to fall down and kill everyone if there's an earthquake larger than a 1.1, and we the ownership will likely have to spend a billion dollars to retrofit. Mercifully, the article points out, the city won't force us to "demolish" our home. Also luckily, everyone else on Capitol Hill is going to have to retrofit as well. I'm getting into the retrofitting business before next year.

a city mandate requiring owners to incur expenses to repair something not broken...this isnt news.

Yeah, but to be fair our building is probably unstable.
