Yeah, but it felt just like a coolant pipe failure. (It was the first earthquake I've ever felt.)

Oh, and IBTM. Now if I can only find that mod.

Speaking of quakes, we just had a rare quake here in southern Colorado yesterday, a 5.4 magnitude. You guys think the earths crust is shifting

For sure in N. Va! I was in a second floor conference room in a 12 story building in an office complex next to National Airport. Pretty strong shaking and this particular building has known structural issues - they already planned on demolishing it in December and rebuilding from scratch. People wasted no time evacuating; much more purposeful than the typical fire alarm evacuation. No one was being allowed back in afterward. I'm sure they will want some inspections first.

Fortunately I had no difficulties retrieving the 996tt from the underground garage in the building next door. I was worried they wouldn't let us enter but no one blocked the access there.

I was pulling my trailer around the house and didn't feel a thing. Must have been the air suspension ... just saying.

Felt it in NYC on the 27th floor.
I wonder who is going to say they thought it was their coil packs?
My wife says she saw our terra cotta floor move in Oyster Bay.

I did not feel it in California. But I did drive with the suspension pretty cushy on Tuesday.

No evidence in Dubai but I did feel one in Azerbaijan about 10 years ago!
