anything over 5 will make you squeeze your anus. Three greater than 5.0 in 24 hrs will really test your sphincter. Geno

I'm just told, some of our friends lost their homes from this. They live in the Bakersfield area. More NET News.god is giving those folks out there in earthquake territory a warning. get out while you still can. a real one in an urban area would be tough to deal with. Biblical proportions buddy, Biblical proportions it will be. Oh, they're all real, some's just realer than others. Geno

Ridgecrest, fairly decent size city.
They got rocked pretty good, evacuating the Hospital.
Had to go there once a month for three years during the 90's for my job. Felt many small quakes during that time. That and it get Furnace hot during the summer.

Quite a few military families living in Ridgecrest. C'mon guys, they damn sure don't set California politics.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Felt it here in Thousand Oaks, I was on the computer and my desk chair started to roll on it's wheels. Nothing harsh just a slow rolling motion.
What I have learned from past quakes is that having a single story home you rarely see the damage that two story homes see.

Was out in L.A. when the '71 quake hit, 6.5 on the scale they claimed. It was a long event, maybe 30 seconds or so and you could not stay on your feet where I was located, just north of the USC campus.
I am..........disturbed.
