Yeah, you do. I remember the SF quake and all those people in the freeway collapse. This was a nasty quake. I’ve lived through all of them since 1957. I’d compare it to the Northridge quake with a lot of shaking and not as much rolling. Shaking is worse. The Sylmar quake, I was on the second floor of an apt in Chatsworth. Nearly rolled out the balcony! But that was a roller-no pun intended. This was a shaker. First time I ever actually left the house during the quake. Northridge I couldn’t. My dresser danced across the room and fell on my legs. I was mantling my daughter at the time. I’d rather this than a tornado/hurricane. No thanks.
