Yep. Just felt it in Pleasanton. Very short - only felt it for about 5 seconds.

and how far is the Hayward fault from your house...my buddy lives on it..literally on the line...he said the house was cheap because of that...

I guess the line runs along that hill behind the really huge church that is all in lights...

When I lived in Union City, I lived about 50 yards off the Hayward Fault. Funny thing is, the records indicated that it was not in a high risk fault zone, nor a liquifaction zone. Go figure.

Oh yeah, we felt it big time here. We're in east Santa Rosa, just 3 miles north west of the epicenter in Glenn Ellen. The quake hit with a good BANG and then RATTLE RATTLE for five or so seconds thereafter. Certainly got our adrenaline pumping!

It was small all and all though, and hopefully it wasn't a precursor for something bigger.

We dont typically feel them in Bonny Doon. We are sitting on a bunch of granite and limestone. No shaking here.

I was reading stories to Ben at the time.... gentle rocking motion her in SF - only lasted about 5 seconds, but my wife was on the phone at the same time and some fucker rang the doorbell and legged it - twice - and the dog went apeshit - so there was about 5 minutes of utter chaos here.

meaning, nothing is going to break off ...

yes, the west coast mountains are acually getting higher, right?

I forgot the number of years they say it will take for L.A. to get here at an inch or so a year.

I don't enjoy earthquakes like I used to before 1989.
