Ok - I know Earth Quakes are scary - BUT OMFG!!!!! This woman here at work RAN SCREAMING to a door way. She is beyond the definition of DRAMA!!!!!

So yeah - we felt it. Felt more than a 4.1, my sis said the house felt like it was rolling for a bit.

[hiimmred]

Nothing for me in SM. Someone from our San Ramon office e-mailed me and said she felt it pretty good.

[Seraph]

I basically nudged my flatscreen back in place and went back to what I was doing :), it was a good shake in Santa Clara though.

[Letterman]

It felt short maybe 10 to 15 seconds, with one good bump here in San Jose.

In San Francisco I felt nothing. The mechanics said they didn't feel it in the shop but the buses up on hoists swayed some.

A couple vibes on the building, it is allways funny to see who will scream like little girls here :) Second one this week, nice!

[Starboard D]

Very small shake.... hardly noticed.... i only react to those that knock my coffee cup off of my desk!!:eek:

[spudly]

Nothing in Santa Cruz while I was at work. My wife felt it at home though.

That's funny to me because my wife (a CA native) HATES earthquakes. She panics like its the end of the world. Last time one happened at night (maybe 3-4 years ago) and I was home sitting on the couch, she was in the kitchen. She goes tearing-@ss down the hallway. I just sat there and drank my beer. She accused me of not helping. I mentioned that there was just about nothing I could do and if was going to kill us I probably couldn't stop it.

She's a great woman and I married way out of my league - but she panics like the rapture is upon us.

[Boatwrench]

Felt this one (http://quake.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Quakes/nc71337451.html)!

What are you guys doing over there?

On a side note: The large Sea Lion population just showed up & took over the boat docks at Pier 39 in San Francisco weeks AFTER the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake, three weeks ago they just simply got up and left. Coincidence?


Where's my Reynolds Wrap?

[geberhard]

Shake it babe!
