The quake was caused by a slip of th e San Andreas Fault over a segment about 275 miles long\, and shock waves could be felt from southern Oregon down to Los Angeles.\nSan Francisco's b rick buildings and wooden Victorian structures were especially devastated. Fires immediately broke out and--because broken water mains prevented fir efighters from stopping them--firestorms soon developed citywide. At 7 a.m .\, U.S. Army troops from Fort Mason reported to the Hall of Justice\, and San Francisco Mayor E.E. Schmitz called for the enforcement of a dusk-to- dawn curfew and authorized soldiers to shoot-to-kill anyone found looting. Meanwhile\, in the face of significant aftershocks\, firefighters and U.S . troops fought desperately to control the ongoing fire\, often dynamiting whole city blocks to create firewalls. On April 20\, 20\,000 refugees tra pped by the massive fire were evacuated from the foot of Van Ness Avenue o nto the USS Chicago.\nBy April 23\, most fires were extinguished\, and aut horities commenced the task of rebuilding the devastated metropolis. It wa s estimated that some 3\,000 people died as a result of the Great San Fran cisco Earthquake and the devastating fires it inflicted upon the city. Alm ost 30\,000 buildings were destroyed\, including most of the city's homes and nearly all the central business district.\n\nhttp://www.youtube.com/wa tch?v=xtcf_eh3u_4&feature=fvwrel\n\n LOCATION: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
