Did we just have an earthquake? (12/5 8:22pm)

I was sitting in a meeting, and as the room started to move everyone in the room seemed to notice, except the speaker, who plowed ahead, not sure why he was losing his audience. A few minutes later, he used the phrase, "I was a little shaken," which caused the entire room to burst into laughter. When it was explained to him that we had just had an earthquake, he just said, "Oh, I wondered what was going on." The confusion on his face was priceless.

Apparently last night's shaking and another one this morning were both aftershocks of a 1999 earthquake in the desert. A little late I'd say. I prefer my aftershocks to be prompt and in the same century.
