I felt it in Pacific Beach in San Diego. I didn't get any bang, just a gentle cyclic rolling or swaying from side to side for about 15 or so seconds.

Yes. It's occurring so much, were considering relocating to safer areas like New Orleans, Louisiana, or Toledo Ohio.

The quake was due to the enormous mass shift of illegals from Mexico to Southern California....
