CAL-TECH'S SEISMIC SWEETHEARTS
Here's to the Seismic Sweethearts, Lucy and Kate
Who quote the Richter, be it five, six or eight.
Though the freeways have folded and their houses a wreck
They still make their appearance at Old Cal Tech.
They answer questions in a backdrop of graphs
It's serious business without a moment for laughs.
With mikes in their faces the questions abound
But cautious the answers on the shaking ground.
Their knowledge is great and their patience is long
As each shock is noted, just where and how strong.
So, break our dishes and rattle our bones
We still have Hutton and we still have Jones.

Be patient as I figure out how to deal with this new form of communication. My verses will appear as often as my 80 year old mind will allow. Ken
