Good question: I feel that every home should have fire extinguishers, emergency water, clothing, hand sanitizer, Lysol spray,dried foods, flashlights and batteries, radio(battery operated), clean clothing, and a set of papers they may need.\nBlankets and pillows.

If it's already happening, I think you should quickly hide under a desk. Or if there's a warning siren or smth, you should run to the nearest shelter or place where your government has designated it to be a place to seek refuge during such emergencies.

You won't be warned.  The earth will just start moving.  The danger isn't the earthquake.  The dangers are the things that fall on you, the fires that burn after (assuming gas lines or electricity or some source of fire and fuel).

Move away from anything that could fall on you.  Get under a table or get flat against a wall.  Stay away from windows and outside doors.  \n\nIf you're outside, move away from power lines or anything that might fall.  Move away from buildings; they could have architectural pieces that could fall on you.  \n\nIf you're in a car, stop until the quake stops.  \n\nDon't use an elevator.  Don't light any matches.  \n\nAnd as they always say, stay calm.  Yeah, right.\n\nMore info on some before and after quake suggestions:\nhttp://www.geo.mtu.edu/UPSeis/bda.html

Ways to prepare for an earthquake are:\n1.  Do not live or work in a structure which is likely to "pancake" in the event of an earthquake.  This would be any multi-story structure which does not have substantial bracing in both horizontal directions.\n2.  For the places you live and work, identify an quick way to get out of the building, so if you fell it start to shake hard, you know how to get out before big things start falling on you.  For lesser shakes, you can protect your self from small things falling by hiding under a very sturdy piece of furniture or standing in a doorway.\n3.  Know where the tall things outside are, like water towers and chimneys and older masonry buildings.  You need to know where these are so that you can stay away from them so that they or pieces of them, do not fall on you.\n4.  Keep a radio with fresh batteries.  After an earthquake, you might need information about where to go for assistance, especially if it turns out that the first place you would think of going is a place that got destroyed.  The radio stations would constantly be broadcasting that type of information.\n5.  Have a few days worth of water and non-perishable food on hand.  That way, if you lose electrical power and the gas supplies are cut, and the water mains break, you can still feed yourself.  If the highways are damaged, the grocery stores will run out of this stuff pretty quickly, so have your own.\n.   Thinking along these lines, I am sure that you can think of some more things that should be done.

Yes, we put up window protection and keep flashlights, batteries, etc. on hand.  We have a gas grill we can cook on after the storm passes, and a generator.
