This reminds me of a documentary about living on the St.Andreas Fault. House prices are amongst the highest in the US, despite the danger of an enormous earthquake that can happen any day.

Houses for sale near LA under a mountain where 10 years ago a landslide killed 10 people were sold within days for collossal prices (sea view). One could see the mountain hanging over the houses...

A shrink was asked for this behavior and he said "Americans live in a constant denial"...
