Millions of people will "drop, cover and hold on" during a statewide earthquake simulation Thursday.  The Great California ShakeOut, an annual event that aims to raise awareness about how to prepare for a major quake, begins at 10:18 a.m. and participants across the state will practice what to do when an earthquake hits.  More than 9 million people have registered to join the exercise so far, including 296,980 people in Santa Clara County. 
Find out who's participating here.  There will be a lot of participation in Mountain View. Both the Mountain View Whisman School District and the Mountain View-Los Altos Union High School District will ensure the students, teachers and staff know what to do during an earthquake.  The Mountain View Fire Department has also signed up to participate.
