I felt it sitting at a desk in La Mesa (San Diego) . . . gentle swaying motion for about 5 seconds. Just talked to a guy in Temecula who felt it while on the 3rd floor of an office building.

Felt it pretty strongly here in Manhattan Beach (about 40 miles west). I'm in a large reinforced concrete building on the third floor and it was flexing the windows, etc. Strongest I've felt in many years.

Yep, we've got a lot of ceiling tile to repair. As a Carpenter Supervisor I have about 4,000,000 square feet of building that I am responsable for. Some of them have asbestos in them. Most of those are closed now.

I was/am working a few minutes away in San Dimas area and we got a pretty good jolt. Had some fixtures fall from the ceilling, stuff fell from desks, etc. I just ran home over lunch and checked the house . Everything is ok, though I was half expecting the 914 to fall off its jackstands (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif).

Well, the LA Times says you're all "a-Twitter". Sounds, well, a bit effeminate, but whatever. They don't call it La La Land for nothin'. A 5.9 is when a largish truck goes by out in the street ...............

So that's what it was..... Us guys in the land of the ground don't shake need to understand the correct scientific Cali Media terms......

But that brings up a question?

Is California twitterpated??????

And, Is twitterpated kinda like constipated but right before the big one lets go?????

I thought it was my cat or dog running around up in redlands. Paid no attention to it.

I flew in for the day for training and was about 10 minutes from Chino...thought it was a train at first. No damage though I was at a Gas Company site with a huge natural gas tank, made me a little uneasy.

Most of the people from LA there hardly noticed...

Another example of why I turned down relocation to Chino.



I want to live somewhere that doesn't have moving ground.......
