My son got a Traxxas Stampede BL-2S for Christmas. He was kind of bored playing with it by himself, so I now have one 2. Pretty nice little truck out of the box for an RTR .
A couple of years ago, I just replaced as I could do it for basically the same $$$ as a rebuild, with the intent to have the originals rebuilt. Yeah, they're still in the garage!
I believe that the alerts have to do with your proximity to the epicenter and how strong it would be felt. Today I was 22 miles from Malibu and go the alert. Other co workers that are in Orange County, did not. Similar experience with the Bakersfield or wherever quake a couple months back.
Right? Test for anitbodies is never mentioned, ever! And if you've had it and recovered, without the poke, you are surely better off than those that haven't had it but had the vax.
