Why don't we get to have names for our quakes

Really, the hurricanes get the honour of actually getting christened with names (I remember way B.I.T.D. when it was just girl's names) but when we have a real whacker of an earthquake it just gets calld the name of the town or piece of land where the epicenter is, which in the case of our last 1989 notable was Loma Prieta. Loma Prieta? Where the fuck is Loma Prieta? Turns out it's not even a city, just a patch of land in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Fuck that shit, I think earthquakes should get names too, they don't happen as often as hurricanes (yet) and you don't get warning of them but it sounds STUPID to be talking about something called Loma Prieta when it didn't "happen" in Loma Prieta, it "happened" all over the fucking Bay Area. So from now on, I propose that this earthquake be named "Monde" and the next biggie can be named "Choronzon". After that, they can start with the baby-name book or some fuckin' thing. I just got your ensemble, thanks...I'll try it when I get back from the store, a MONTH it took you to get sound out of Reaktor? I should have been able to hear the cuss words coming all the way from here, I'll bet you could hear mine two days ago.
