Felt it here in Atlantic City. One armed bandits started spitting out silver dollars. I grabbed me a pockeful, filled my fanny pack, and underpants, before security thugs arrived and began grabbing them for theirselves. We’re rich,Marge!
Dow Jones soaring on news of earthquake in Washington, DC.
(... that D.C. is no more.)
Sister Mineral in Charles Town, WV says she got a loud rumble from the ground, but no shaking or damage. Didn’t care for it though.
Felt tremors here in Exeter, New Hampshire... shook for about 35 seconds, must have been a doozy. I guess God is none too happy with Obamessiah and his minions.
We felt it very well here in WV just past the Potomac. Weird.
Any surviving politicians?
Felt the whole building shake and sway (NE MD).
I felt it big time here in northern VA
Never experienced anything like it. My bafflement as to how anybody manages to live in California and stay sane has just shot the moon.
Did NJ just have an earthquake?Those are the contemporaneous initial reaction posts.

I used to know a divorcee from Napa, CA, who get real excited every time an earthquake hit. (True story.)
Sure is different from the Shep Smith who railed on and on how bad Katrina was and how things were falling apart and it was near Armageddon...
Makes me wonder how his demeanor would be if a Republican were in the White House...
Now he is saying he is done talking about the Earth Quake and will now only talk about the history making that is happening right now in Libya...
hahahah what a freaking Obama shill!
VA just had an aftershock but we did not feel it over here by the Chesapeake Bay
Didn’t feel it in southside Hampton Roads.
I understand that the epicenter was Mineral, VA. I wasn’t there at the time but Ms. OP who was at our house only 15 miles from Mineral said that the house shook violently and the sound was scary beyond belief.
This is the second earthquake near our house. In 2006 I was out in the woods cutting firewood and an earthquake around 3 or so hit near Richmond, about 70 miles away. Again, Mrs. OP was in the house, which shook quite a bit.
I KNOW!!! It’s HAARP! Chemtrails. Castro farding. Sheesh.
USGS folks, go to ANSS for magnitude and report. And then notice the others earlier in the week and last week in Colorado. Important yes. I’d watch things in St. Louis frankly.
