Exactly parallel to me. Started SDSC in 1966, gradutated SDSU 1972, I was squeezed out of the area in 1981. I did move to where I had a great career, so there's that. Since retirement, I've d lived in Germany. Life's nothing if not weird, man.
I've been in SoCal all my life and San Diego County since 1967. Fishing on inland lakes, finding sea shells. Rounded rocks on Mira Mesa. 300 foot cliffs. Offshore underwater canyons. This answers some of my questions. I should have gone to college and studied geology.
Yup, I was squeezed out in 1981 in my early 30s. I miss it, but too many people and too congested for my taste. Much less dense here in Germany where I've lived since retiirement, ironically enough.
Enjoyed this fabulous video today! Not a geologist, but always interested and fascinated by it. And especially by my beloved hometown San Diego. ❤️ Thank you for sharing this video!!
i remember when you were researching the rose canyon fault system. there were markers in the pavement on ardath road i could see every morning when i drove up that road to go to my classes at ucsd. the local news did a report showing that stretch of road and what you were studying.
thanks I'm a native san diegan and currently taking geology right now :) i just accidentally stumbled on this while researching stuff for my class on beaches! :) how cool of you to post this, and now i can really know about my beautiful city!!! :)
@@Terrifier1984 I'm guessing English isn't your first language, so I'll try and simplify. Although I grew up in the San Diego area, I've lived in many countries. And have I ever lived anywhere else ??? Sure, I presently reside in Scandinavia for the past 15+ years. But now I'm wondering what that has to do with the subject.
Born and raised. Could not have grown up in a better place . It’s been a dump since 1988 . I left and every time I come visit I get more sad to see what has happened to the whole state
"...but thousands of years ago, long before San Diego ever had a name, people still came to this place..." That would likely be a first, then, that a region with such bountiful resources didn't have a name among those who visited it in their cyclic wanderings for subsistence, I'd say.
I lived in San Diego for over 20 years, great times and some hard and trying times, never thought it sucked though. You must have had a tough time of it, sorry that your experience was so lacking. I've lived all over the world and I still miss San Diego
