Yes, but that's vulcanic in nature.

Didn't feel it here, but we were watching Iron man at the time.

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.

Really freeking slow news day too.

How do they know it's an aftershock and not a new one.

Did we have an aftershock at around 2:30 am? The cats woke me up and they were a bit freaked out. Calliope's tail was the size of a raccoon.
