It ain't a real quake until it gets over 5 on the scale. Anything lower than that is just trucks passin' on the inter-state

Quit spoiling my fun with realistic talk! ;-)

Sorry, but I can't help it. Remember the 7.0 Santa Cruz Quake that did all the damage in the SF Bay area a few years back, and interupted the World Series at Candlestick Park? The epicenter was 3 miles from where I lived then. For two weeks we had 5.0 to 5.5 after-shocks rumble through about every 10 minutes (and hundreds of smaller ones almost continuously).

You want scary? Try being under a house checking a foundation when a 5.5 happens....
