Gotta go with Jay on this one. I was working I didnt feel a dam thing. Even better was on a 10ft ladder most of the day. No sway for me. No shake just work... ******* imagination you people have. Christ sounds like most of you used it as excuse to get out of work early. Get over it you didnt die. Work harder and the little BS in life wont bother you... Christ next time the ******* ground shakes it will be a truck going by you... You will probably grab the guy next to you and start crying and hugging to get your gay side out...

Cmon Jay. I know someone in York that felt it. I guess it depends how sensitive you are. I felt it real good but my sister across the street didnt feel a thing...

I was at work in Rockville MD on the 8th floor and you felt it... Kinda like a dump truck driving on the same exit ramp or pakring garage.

Now my wife was up on 18 and she said you could feel and see the building sway out of her window..

1/2 day and I dont care.

It was exciting to me. But at first i thought all the dryers in the apt were on. XD

Guess i was wrong XP

Two guys in a different building at work are sitting in adjacent cubicles. One felt it and the other didn't. Same thing happened out in the shop. Their machines are about 12 feet apart. Go figure? I guess some people are just numb from the neck down. I guess that's better than being numb from the neck up, though.
