I was 70 miles south of the big Northridge quake and that one wasn't amusing at all.

I've been through every big one since Sylmar.

My pal told me over instant messenger that this one just a moment ago felt like one enormous jolt rather than a swaying motion. That's not good. Reminds me of the two smaller quakes in the months before the big Landers quake let go.

I well remember the Sylmar and Northridge. My first quake that I remember vividly was the Tehachapi. I was 8 years old and horrified!

That's interesting KG9Kid. This quake also reminded me of the period of time preceding both the Landers and the Northridge quakes.
