This is true, compared to your guys' quakes. At least we shouldn't have to worry about falling into the ocean though, haha. J/k man, I hope that never happens.

Default everybody ok

I live and work just north of the epicenter. I was on the 2nd floor of the school library with 50 other people. Thanks to you taxpayers, schools are built really solid so all we had was some cosmetic damage and ceiling tiles being displaced. You should of seen all of our fat behinds all trying to get out through that stupid turnstile!!!
My mechanic watched his wheeled tool boxes get up and take a walk while some of the trays worked their way out. The 20 foot doors vibrated down and his back wall of the shop now has a new crack to deal with.
Another friend reported seeing white tops on his pond 10 minutes from the nuclear power plant that was shut down
