Earthquake in Cali. Around a 6.5.

All of you okay down there?

Apparently it was centered in the middle of nowhere so it was more fun than anything.

In between, about 120 miles south of San Jose. It was pretty deep. Nothing too bad, it seems.

I'm not too concerned, but it never hurts to ask.

Actually, it was not far outside San Luis Obispo, where a week or two ago there would have been twenty-thousand odd college students, and where there's a nuclear power plant.

Actually I just got chided on a listserv for asking that because people were scared from the subject that something horrible (terrorist) had happened. Fun times these days...

Fucking shit.

The USGS recent quakes page for that area is here. Looks like nearly seventy aftershocks so far, about one every 1 to 3 minutes, up to 4.6 in intensity.

Good luck, man.

The room swayed nicely!

Other than that, and a bit of dizziness from the way too swayey building, everything here in San Jose is delightful.

I didn't even know anything had happened until they talked about it on NPR.

Thanks.

That's good to know.

Heh.

I'm in the middle of nowhere...

And I felt it. It was a slow rumbling, almost sea-like feeling. Much different than the shaking from the two-ton ordinance they drop here on a regular basis. ~_^

Heh. That puts things in a bit of perspective...
