Re: Just felt a little tremblor roll through...

Felt nothing here in L.A., other than the usual earthquakes, riots, fires and floooding

Speaking of which, what were you doing on this date in 1992? I was super busy....

I had my screen door open in my room and heard it roll through after I felt it. I'm used to feeling/hearing it from west to east, but this time it was from east to west. There are lots of trees around here so it's interesting how you can hear them coming/going. I've actually woken up at night before and heard one coming before I felt it. Weird, huh?
