    Felt it here in San Diego. I thought the dog had bumped the chair I was in. Wasn't until I saw this thread that I realized it was an earthquake. Checked USGS.gov and they show 5.0 up in L.A.

    Felt it in Riverside. Shook for about 10 secs. No biggie. The house is still standing unlike houses in Kansas.

    Yeah, my cheap ass desk chair was kinda swaying from side to side, while I'm here on the HAMB. It was around 8:40.

    Weird. Kinda like being in a tree while the wind's blowing.

    Real mild...didn't feel anything like a 4.7.

    Kindof a 'yawner'.

    Didn't feel a thing here in Tucson.

    Hope everybody is okay.
