5. Thanks for the info...
...it was close to Long Beach...and that is why I probably felt it a bit more than those in the L.A. area.

2. I was on my second floor...and I heard it.
But I didn't feel it at all...

Manhattan Beach here.

It had to be either small, or far away.

VERY brief.

4. I thought maybe it was MY imagination too!
Since I didn't feel it at all...

The house made a creak sound, and that was it.

8. You and I are close to where it hit...
...my pals in L.A. did not feel it at all.

Weird...I woke up last night from a dream that there was an earthquake.

:shrug:

Well, at least it is another beautiful day in the South Bay! :hi:

12. A couple of nights ago I dreamed that Seattle had a 5.0+, and it was followed
a day or so later by a 10.0 at the mouth of the Columbia River.

:scared:

10. Didn't feel a thing up here in the San Fernando Valley, and I am sitting
still so that surprises me. Normally I am really sensitive to them.

Dang. Missed it.

16. I'm glad I wasn't here then. My first was Whittier in '87.
The wooden floor of my apartment got wavy. That was some crazy shit to see.
