On [[18 April]] [[1906]], [[San Francisco]] was ravaged by an '''[[earthquake]]''' and consumed by [[fire]]. [[Azathoth]] and her [[rakshassi]] army, having been diverted here by the [[Seventh Doctor]], were consumed in the fire. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[All-Consuming Fire (novel)|All-Consuming Fire]]'') [[Caleera|The Sonomancer]] attempted to destroy the [[Earth]] with this earthquake, amplifying it with [[the Gift (The Gift)|the Gift]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Gift (audio story)|The Gift]]'') The [[vampire]] known as [[Weird Harold]] was found buried alive after the earthquake. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Vampire Science (novel)|Vampire Science]]'') | |||
While wondering why the residents of [[Pompeii]] didn't move away after the [[62]] earthquake, the [[Tenth Doctor]] answered his own question by saying, "then again, San Francisco". ([[TV]]: ''[[The Fires of Pompeii (TV story)|The Fires of Pompeii]]'') | |||

The "Earth-Skaro Timescale" of ''[[Terry Nation's Dalek Annual 1976]]'', while claiming that any corresponding events may be purely coincidental, acknowledges that in [[Skaro-year]] 10,823 ([[1906]]), a [[Dalek]] task force landed on Earth to examine the core of the [[planet]], causing much disturbance to the surface. | |||
