Last Month's Earthquake
Just saw some video of it shot on the Judge Judy set and it looks exactly what it felt like where I am.

2. I am 42 years old and have lived in So-Cal my whole life
My first earthquake experience (which I still remember it) was the Sylmar quake back in 1971. I've experienced all the others since then.

4. To be honest, I kind of like them
Of course I don't like the danger they pose to people's lives and property. But they are a moment of "oh shit" excitement. I don't know, maybe I am weird to think that way.

You've been here since the 50's. Oh man you don't know how much I envy you for living here through the 60's and early 70's. At least I remember some of the early 70's, but I was only a little kid.

:hi:

5. How did this compare?
I've been through several in Seattle (where I lived all my life until the last five years) and the biggest one -- 6.8 a few years back, didn't FEEL like the biggest. So just curious.

6. This one only felt like a mediocre one
Big enough to feel like more than just a window rattling one, but, a lot smaller than any one I'd classify as a good sized one. It was decent in size but scored low on the list.

8. I like this one better
Judge Judy's eyes get big and she just turns her chair and walks off.
