We felt it up here in Northeast PA.  We were buying a car at the local dealership.  While doing the paperwork and the Salesperson telling us the payments, I thought my wife was nervously shaking her leg.  I looked down no shaking of the leg.  then the windows started shaking.  We all looked at each-other then I said I bet it's an earthquake.  It lasted for about 10 seconds.  They were pretty strong tremors.   fcp

I was laying on the beach on IBSP.  I felt the ground moving, but didn't say anything because I thought I was going crazy. ;D

Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.
