My favorite of the demonstrations was the Loma Prieta Earthquake demonstration under the Mathematics section. This demonstration was my favorite because it models the earthquake that hit San Francisco in 1989 and stopped the baseball World Series that was taking place in the city at that time. Being a big San Francisco Giants fan from Northern California I found this demonstration particularly interesting.
