    Default Pancakes will cause fatalities

    Just saw this on the SMH website, 2nd last paragraph. I never knew that earthquakes and pancakes were related and so dangerous.
    If I do not clearly express what I mean, it is either for the reason that having no conversational powers, I cannot express what I mean, or that having no meaning, I do not mean what I fail to express. Which, to the best of my belief, is not the case.

    I guess I'll be ordering the short stack next time I go to a Pancake restaurant. Don't want to take any unnecessary risks

    Maybe you should try crepes next time, not as thick as some.

    IMHO Civil defense offices should only be located on the top floor of high rise buildings...that way once the quake has pancaked the building the jolly old civil defense office will be nicely relocated at ground level and ready to open for business
