Anyone feel the earthquake?

Did anyone feel the small quake last night?

http://www.news1130.com/news/local/a...he-south-coast

I was sleeping and I woke up felt my bed shake...Was confused at first and thought it was just my imagination

Guess it wasn't. No one else in my family felt it.

Didn't feel it as I was still half awake.

Though, I have felt two 6.7 and 7.0 earthquakes before in LA and Philippines before. It's definitely one of the scariest experiences I've had.

Lots of small earthquakes = no big one, so let's have more small ones to relieve the pressure.

Damn it, took this long to get where I am today and now the big one might hit and I lose everything - that would totally suck balls.

Damn you, mother nature..................

Like most old timers, I'm well prepared. Stocked up on bottled water, canned goods, etc. All I need is a good generator.

Not living on the side of a mountain or on a delta. All good.

I guess if the big one hits, I'll have RS withdrawls............

Just like my son. He can sleep through earthquakes. I wouldn't be surprised if I find him snoring away with cinder blocks on top of his head. LOL.

If the "big one" strikes, the first thing RS members will do is create (and post in) an OFFICIAL EARTHQUAKE thread instead of getting under a desk or something.

Poll question for everyone:

You're lying in bed for the night, an earthquake strikes and you have a split second to react. Whats the first thing you would grab to keep safe?

it's not a bad idea to learn where the main power switch, gas and water valves are in the house...other than that i'm not really prepared myself.

didnt notice either, around what time?

the last "big" one i remember experiencing here was around 2000-2001, remember that one? the school was swaying back and forth after the quake, that was some intense shit, cant imagine being in a real big one (like 7.0+)
