halarkin: wow!
auntyalias: just a little shake, waiting for after shocks
auntyalias: we had one Saturday night, Santa Rose, 4.3, so it comes in
clusters if we're lucky

our behinds
auntyalias: so this one was light
buci131: yikes

and strength.
buci131: I've still got to put some future on most of it
halarkin: what does the future do? Future the floor wax stuff, clear
in a clear bottle?
techi_mom56: we dont get many earthquakes up here..but the weirdest
one i ever felt i didnt know it was a quake till i heard about on the

auntyalias: It was 3.7, I predicted it was 3 to 4, and not right close
by
auntyalias: I was pretty right on
auntyalias: after a while you can guess pretty close what magnitude it
is and how far from the epicenter you might be

one big lurch
