Re: Earthquake!
It wasn't a strong quake. 4.8 on the Richter scale. I am curious how much damage there is. When I lived in Indiana I remember a quake that was 5.0, and the dishes rattled a little bit. I thought there was a jet flying over the house.

Re: Earthquake!
I haven't even felt an earthquake in 15 or 20 years.
But just 3 nights ago was video chatting with our daughter in Japan and she had one while we were chatting. Pretty scary for them, but they get them all the time.

... But, then, I slept through a 6.2 Quake in Alaska in 1973, so I guess I'm not easily impressed.

If it wasn't for them the US would start tilting towards the South and we westerners would all pile up at the mountain ranges.

A nice morning jolt from a 5.4 in Malibu.
BTW, the myshake app is crazy. I'm getting alerts nearly a full minute before I feel shaking.

Looks like the control tower at Naypyidaw International Airport in Myanmar collapsed.
So far about 150 dead in Myanmar but I’m guessing that’s going way up.
