Every person an island...?? Actually, that doesn't sound too appealing.

I want to throw in something snappy about tectonic plates, or something. ie ...they just drift along until they crash into others anyway. Then they become somewhat inseparable (in a good way) unless they grate upon each other too severely and cause something cataclysmic like the San Andreas.

Would you rather be someplace (geologically) dull, where nothing ever happens, or in the fault zone?
Nebraska or San Francisco?

I'd rather be somewhere dull where I can live out what existence I have in peace, and with a clear mind. BUT, it might be nice to visit the family living on the fault for a weekend twice a year, and then get back to dull and tell all the neighbors about the exciting (overwhelming) trip.
