I swear I felt something about 1:30, but hey I’m originally from the PRK (from before it was the PRK). Hell, I even called the strength of that 4.5 we had here a few years back, a full half hour before they announced it. It’s weird having calibrated feet.

No, you have something. The fact you don’t know it indicates you have a life. :)
It’s obscure, although the song was pretty popular. But I’m guessing at least one freeper will come up with the answer in the next half hour or so.

Did I say in the next half hour? I meant “in the next 53 seconds!” Anyway, congratulations, So Cal Rocket. Pugachev, soooo close to being first.

Of course it might have been a horse farting.

I thought Hitlery was in Indiana today, but here she is stomping around and causing tremors in Virginia...

I was on the 10th floor of a building but the fluorescent light fixture kept vibrating

My office is across the street from a construction site, so I probably dismissed this as equipment moving (makes my building vibrate). Would you consider this more or less noticeable than a steel beam being driven into the ground 60 yards away?

To: PUGACHEV
The feel of an earthquake can vary tremendously. The ones we get here in the 3 range are like a truck hitting the building. In the 5 range there is shaking and rumbling for about five seconds.
