[JohnQPublic]

It was a nice solid and slow roller. Nothing jolty about it.

Nope, nothing violent or noisy about it, but made ya a little queasy if you get seasick at all...

[Mouse]

I am so glad I moved away. Earthquakes are funny, time slows down to a crawl.

[BrewTech]

Perhaps an aftershock of one that happened in the same place earlier this afternoon?

Holy crap, there were several near Ocotillo today! Appears there were 4 there...

I saw all that, but felt none of it, nor heard of anyone here at home feeling it (we have about 8 people here now). Of course we are closer to LA than Tiajuana. We all felt this last one.

Hell, more than that today...

Interesting, supposed to be at least a 7.6.........better have a talk with my controller ???

[Apparition]

I was too far up north in the state but, hopefully, the Big One will soon strike a heavy blow to much of this collectivist and politically-correct cesspool known as California.

The 7.6 coming tomorrow...today was just a trial run.

[illumin19]

Right when I was leaving for Isha, I felt it.....was like the pad was on rollers.


Lately the earthquakes been seeming more like a roll than a jolt around here.

Obama says come to the gulf for vacation, have a snow cone, have seafood... all is well.

[Shami-Amourae]
