    Ohio?  Little to close for comfort for me!  Especially since FI is getting an emergency root canal at the moment.  That can't be good in an earthquake.

    @tranquility: Yeah, it was very subtle here. At first I though there was just someone very overweight walking really heavily down the hall or something.

    I felt it in Cleveland, Ohio.  I am on the 17th floor and the building shook like 5 times. Scary!  I'm still a little shook up about it.

    It happened in Virginia, I work in Columbia Maryland and my whole building was shaking really bad. My FI works in Frederick, MD and he thought it was just their building. I was like NOPE.
