Silicon Valley is home to many of America's largest technology companies including Google and Cisco. Even with thousands of the smartest programmers and engineers in the world, Silicon Valley was unable to prevent an earth quake that struck Thursday morning. A light 4.1 earthquake shook this Northern California city. The USGS said the quake, struck at 10:09 a.m. local time was at a depth of 5.6 miles. There have been no reports of major damage or loss of life. This earthquake was a strong reminder of the constant threat of earthquakes. In California especially, the nubmer of faults make the chances for a large earthquake that much greater.
