Whee! Earthquake!
Only a 3.9, but close to where I live. Any other Bay Area DU'ers feel it?

4. LG? sorry I'm drawing a blank
I guess what they call "a senior moment" I'm starting to get them.

7. Los Gatos
Sorry. I know Dookus is in Santa Cruz and the only LG "over the hill" from Santa Cruz is Los Gatos. I got lazy. :hi:

5. Ooooh
That's not big enough to do any damage, is it? I hope everyone and everyting is okay.

I've never felt an earthquake. I've always been curious what that feels like.

6. no
a 3.9 can barely be felt in most cases. If my windows didn't make a little rattling noise, I wouldn't have even noticed it.

9. I have felt really small tremors like that.
We get tremors here that occasionally make the windows rattle, and it just feels like a large truck drove by. But, never big ones. They say we're in for a big one some day, though. :scared:

8. They're kind of neat
I'm one of those people who enjoys them though I always hope there is no damage or injury. This one was kind of like a butt massage for me - I felt it through my computer chair.

10. Missed it
I'm in Oaktown and didn't feel it. Dang. I love the little ones.
