Nice! That's good information.
Interesting to see how many earthquakes there have been in the last week, day, hour.
See that wee red line at the top of the California coast? That's my area...
Gee, only 395 earthquakes this week. It's a slow one.
By the way, I didn't feel it, and I have no idea how. I'm guessing it was because I was in an elevator at the time, apparently the building shook pretty good.
I've been through hundreds of earthquakes of a minor sort, and a few biggies. Tremendous damage can ensue in highly built environments - of course. Fbaezer holds the record at a2k for most difficult earthquake experience, though, as far as I know.

You are wicked, Letty - but subtle, methinks.....
Hmmm. My niece and her dad left LA this morning to come up and see me; I think they are taking 101, which goes through Paso Robles. They probably hadn't gotten there by the time the quake hit.
Another hmmm, I have friends who have just built their dream house on 75 acres just outside of Paso, as we call it.
Yes, my friends. We become jaded when confronted with the awesome but spectacular forces of nature.There are so many things over which we have no control.
Tonight, I was swept away with Noddy's thread on the beauty but horror of the iron horse. <smile>
I guess I can drift if I want to.
We stand before the altar of man,
We listen to the echo of rumblings.
Know that wherever we are,
We are vulnerable.
Whining? No, that's just a word.
No one whines who loves,
All of us beg when we face death.
But most of us just accept....
To all of you, everywhere..
A gentle goodnight.
