“Just had a sudden sharp quake here”
(please hear my friendly tone!)
Knowing where “here” is really helps.
I’ve probably made the same “faux paus” myself
(did I spell that right?).
I did experience a 4.5 at UCLA (epicenter was maybe 20 miles
east of UCLA).
It was an strange experience to see the large glass windows of the
Molecular/Biology building in UCLA’s South Campus wiggle a bit like
Jello during the short quake. (I admit, I was at the open-air vending
machines just north of the Biology building when I saw this!).
Now I’m in Mid-Missouri and more concerned about the New Madrid,
not the San Andreas fault (or the interlocked networks of each system).
Yar, so everyone is telling Me. *laugh* I am actually surprised how many people do not read keywords. Still, answering them is more interesting than watching the telly so no worries.
