Understood that a 4.4 is legitimate news on the east coast.

But out here in the land of fruits and nuts it has to be 100 times stronger than that to make the news.

So it would have to be a 6.4 to make the news?

I know, I remember a few of them when I had the "pleasure" of being in Southern Cal.

But to keep it in context, the 2011 earthquake in Virginia (a 5.8, epicenter about 100 miles from DC), did a huge amount of damage in DC, including the National Cathedral, the Washington Monument, and damage to the old Smithsonian.

That would be a 6.4, right?
