Anybody know if there were or are “earthquake lights” in that area?

I live in San Francisco and have shook, rattled and rolled on these wonderful hills ALL MY LIFE! Sometimes I have to wonder if it's a huge truck ... or the quake.
My three particular hills we lived on were shale and some SOLID rock, so they didn't slide. They just shook, rattled and rolled. Hey, that sounds like the name of a great song!
