I lived in STL until the end of 1991 - remember the big one we were supposed to get around then? Some expert even predicted the exact date (can't remember if it was in 1990 or 1991). Needless to say, it didn't happen. It was like a Y2K precursor - people had their cars loaded with provisions in case they had to evacuate.

I'm in St. Louis, and I felt it. Dittos! For about five seconds. Weird.
