    I kinda like quakes, I get dizzy and I am like wooooah :drinker: LOL

    of course not a 9 one, but I once felt a 7.2 one, I had fun trying to walk straight after it hehe

    Theres nothing fun about quakes when they kill people and destroy cities. Ive lived through two massive quakes (6.3 and 7.1) and over 10000 aftershocks (and still counting) here in Christchurch NZ....not a good time. I dont feel anything under a 4 now, you become immune...

    ferreals haha.

    I'm a California girl originally and my "first" earthquake was the Loma Prieta so basically I am unimpressed by what causes a tizzy in New England.

    Didn't feel a thing down here in New York.

    Oddly enough I felt that one in VA a while back.

    I felt that one too. I was on the phone with the doctor's office and thought my kids were jumping off the beds upstairs. I was getting ready to lay into them when the doctor abruptly said she'd have to call me back and the kids came running downstairs scared to death. We couldn't figure out what it was. It wasn't until after I got back on the phone with the doctor and she told me that they had experienced shaking from an earthquake before I realized that's what it was. I'm on the east coast so it's something I've never experienced before.

    I will warn you from my experience during the VA earthquake last year... be prepared for an onslaught of news coverage and footage of cracked chimneys, framed photos slightly jiggling on walls, and fluorescent lights shaking and flickering

    Oh well doesn't that just make you superior. Let's see now how does southern California react when there's a slight drizzle of rain? People talk about things they aren't used to. Get over it.

    The center was 3 miles from my house, 4.6 felt like a plane had crashed in the backyard. I don't know how people can live in CA with the threat of them all the time.

    To be fair, I don't think she meant it the way it sounded :) I think she was just adding to the convo :flowerforyou:

    guess u missed my ´of course not a 9 one....´ , meaning quakes where lots of ppl die are not fun, but if the city just shake a bit and nothing happens, they are fun, at least for me!
    And yes you become immune, you say you have lived two massive ones, for me, living in the pacific coast, a 6.3 is not a massive one, nor the 7.1 you comment, the 7.2 I felt a few years ago just made me a bit dizzy and i didnt even feel the replicas. Massive for me is the one they had in Chile few years ago, or the one in Japan.

    We had a couple small ones here in Dallas, TX a few weeks back. I have been through many earthquakes when I lived in California and never freaked out...but this one in Dallas scared the crap out of me.

    I thought the roomer (she rents the extra bedroom, she brought me here) had rolled out of bed LOL!

    She SLEPT through it! :laugh:

    It's weird in these parts when there's a quake. I think this is the third one I've felt in my almost 52 years.
