One of the things that's always puzzled me since visiting the Oregon coast are all the tsunami warning signs that tell you to head for high ground or inland if you feel an earthquake, some of which point to an evacuation route.

How much actual time is there to get to high ground once an earthquake hits? Is this a "drop everything and run, and maybe some of you will make it" thing, or something you have time to grab a few possessions and take a nice leisurely stroll for? The signs don't exactly make it clear whether this is a thing where seconds (and good cardio) matter or not.

As someone who is reaching middle age and can no longer really consider myself young, I'm actually a bit more interested if you know whether an old saw is true about aging and increased conservatism.

Do people grow more conservative with age, or do their beliefs stay the same and get left behind, or do they move in waves of static belief as older people die off and younger people start voting?

I know I've stayed pretty liberal overall as I've aged despite other shifts in beliefs, but is that typical or does polling & demographic data indicate that's normal or not?

People born after 1999 are too young to have voted more than once.

Do you have any information tracking the voting patterns of a generation as it moves through multiple elections over time?

If anything, saying, "The Nazis did it," usually has the opposite effect.

Good, fast, cheap. Pick two.
