Centered in Sleepy Hallow 2.3 around 10 15 this morning 

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Most of us who have lived in California wouldn't even notice that...

Yeah, a 2.3 feels more like a "shudder" or a big truck driving down the street.

You would have LOVED the 6.8 we had in '96...

@Desertdi  I was in Realto.  I believe San Bernardino was ground zero.  In a matter of approximately 6 seconds, the tv shot off, the ceiling cracked, I fell off the couch as I saw my life flash across my eyes. 

I took the first flight back to the east coast the following morning.  Ain't been back since.

@Desertdi I am glad it is nothing I will ever have to experience

@I am still oxox  Ahhh yes, and the 7.1 in 1989.  I worked in San Francisco at the time and lived in the East Bay.  I'm still here and one never gets used to earthquakes  LOL

That quake is WHY I now live in Arizona...   The glass-walled office building where I worked didn't do so well.   The outside glass elevator hit the ground, and the building was condemned.

 

Of course, NOBODY was hiring, either...    I needed a paycheck to pay the rent...so I moved over to Phoenix.      di

I vividly recall the August 2011 quake, centered in Virginia,  that registered 5.8 in New York City.  If you recall, the Washington Monument sustained damage.

 

My rolling desk chair on the 55th floor moved, startling me and almost  everyone ran to the elevators. 

 

I stayed put.  You don't want to be out on the streets if building debris starts falling.
