I'm in San Diego for the California Charter Schools Conference. I was still in my hotel room on the 16th floor when I noticed a little swaying and creaking, lasting about 15 seconds. California doesn't let you forget where you are.

I suppose I should have run for a doorway, but I had forgotten my earthquake training

‘____on the 16th floor_________’

Years ago I was in Santa Barbara, and felt a quake ‘sway’ from about the 4th floor of a building. When I got to the lobby, people looked at me like I was nutty or something - they hadn’t felt it. So of course it didn’t happen!
Right then, as a TV was on, came the quake news. Vindicated!!!
