Can someone please tell me what time this "earthquake" occurred? I was literally on the number 5 train in NYC like 45 mins ago & felt nothing, came to the surface & felt nothing. Hopped on the bus.........nothing. Walk in the house "OMG EARTHQUAKE, GOD IS COMING, 2012, etc etc"

If anything, I'd expect the VA/DC folks to be more dramatic than the NYC folks
Then again, many of the buildings in LA are retrograded and some even have springs underneath them; they can survive a (moderate) earthquake.

My friend high as hell texts me saying he thought he had Parkinson's. I hit him back with "Nah, probably just a mini seizure."

My daughter and I were asleep and woke up to the house shaking and rumbling...I knew right away what it was, I wasn't scared but just didn't want the noise to scare my daughter...I'm in Richmond VA btw if that matters.

Haha. I work with people that were born and raised in NYC and when it gets a tad cold in SF, theys till come in with no jacket like its still summer time. The LA people on the other hand that work with are something else. Fog rolls in and they come walking in with layers upon layers.
