field trip

Yesterday all us earthquake people went to see the shaker table. Unfortunately, they weren't ready to test it while we were there, so I hope we'll be able to go back sometime to see it. For all of you who don't know, the shaker table is a huge device that mimicks the motions of an earthquake. It is where they test building structures to see which ones are most efficient at withstanding an earthquake. The field trip was fun. We all got these awesomely dorky green hard hats to wear while we toured the area. It's crazy how many wires they have in that place. Well, time 4 lunch... bye!
