I bet some native Califorinians would have a laugh at the posts on this thread. My wife went through a few 7+ on the 34th floor. 5.9 was a minor occurence that no one barely noticed.

Just to be more clear, i thought it was ME... if it was a serious earthquake, i would have known what was going on.. I wasnt freaking out because i thought there was an earthquake.

Those that felt it, report it here:

Early scuttlebutt is it occured along the Spotsville fault, which if memory from my time mapping in Western VA is right is ~400 MA, but is more related to Mesozoic activity (~200MA) (MA = Million years ago). I don't remember if it is a fault related to the opening of the Atlantic and the break up of Pangea or not. |

CNN is reporting that it occurred on a previously unmapped/unamed fault. Geologists have named it after our current president. Yup, it's Obama's Fault  |

I am in NYC today and it was pretty weird to feel and see buildings be evactuated etc. Agree with the queeziness thing. Everyone I talked to here kind of said the same thing. They all thought it was something wrong with them until they looked around.
