we're sitting here in Toronto - a little jittery about the G-20 - when the building starts shaking

we're getting ready to evacuate the building - v.p's telling us to gather our things

emails start coming in - did you feel it did you feel it

people got off calls with colleagues in Connecticut and Montreal (those places are a long way away) - they felt it

whoa - the building really sways on the 24th floor

I'm in Upstate New York. Nothing felt here... never thought there'd be an earthquake anywhere near here, though.

@ehBeth,

Small rumble here on the 2nd floor, but pictures swinging, etc. Still no damage reports that I can see, so that's good.
