Glad to hear you're okay :up: Was there much damage?

Look for a second show. Hopefully less than a 5.0!

That must be frightning.

I spent a month in california one week scared the whole time of an earthquake.

I dont know how yall do it.

FIREWALL 05-18-09 12:18 PM

Thx Guys. :up: No damage at either house thank the stars above.

I felt one large jolt that lifted me up about 6 inches from my chair.

I was watching STTNG on dvd and thought a car hit the house or a house nearby blew up.

We have natural gas here for cooking and heating as opposed to elec.

Glad to hear that your safe. Just don't go using the gas for awhile or it might end up like San Fransisco did in 1908:o

I thought there was another 5.0 nearby there a few days ago.

Felt it here in the San Fernando Valley about 40 miles away. It was just a slow rolling motion here for about 7-10 seconds. I thought the dog was moving my chair. Was listening to my headphones for a sound contact in SH3. Looked around, no dog, dang must have been a quake. But of course nothing like the Northridge Earthquake in '94. That was 3 miles away and I had about $50,000.00 dollars of damage.........

Glad it's alright. I was there for the dam-buster in '71, and we've had some dish-rattlers here in Salt Lake from time to time.

Always entertaining, but never fun.

Never felt a earthquake. sounds intresting. (like the trampoline from hell)

We over here on the east coast... get hurricanes.

Jimbuna 05-20-09 08:20 AM

Never experienced such a phenomena but been to a few of the aftermaths. :o

Pleased to hear your okay mate :yeah:

There were supposedly several noticeable earthquakes around here over the last couple of years, but I never noticed a single one...

I say it's a conspiracy that goes up to the highest levels of power!
