Good grief... WTIC 1080 AM radio now interrupting Rush's show (with Mark Belling subbing today). Joe D'Ambrosio and news guy Aaron Kupec taking calls from CT residents "who felt something".

I didn't feel anything here in NW CT. Everything is still on my shelves... no damage whatsoever.

Bush's fault.

Or maybe it was Perry's fault. Got to be up-to-date.

Evacuating the Pentagon? 5.8? Perhaps an overreaction?

EXTREMELY SHALLOW, just 1kn, around just 3000 feet deep.

There is a large dam less than 3 miles from the epicenter.
