click on the big blue box for details of this earthquake.
Biggest one I can remember since 1989. Google earth says I'm 12.8 miles
away -- the other side of San Jose. A big noisy ride in my house but not
enough to knock anything over that I can find here.
Did get me up to try to catch my TV if it continued.
Good reminder to screw down, strap or stick all those big or breakable
things I never got around to fastening yet.
