It shook the building I'm in for like 15 seconds. They say it started 34 miles NW of Richmond and was 3.7 miles deep.

Lorraine, you okay?

I was just reading about it, hope all are ok.

There was a fairly large one in Colorado this morning too. I had no idea there were quakes in that area.

I hope everyone back there is okay.

Sharon,

It was just kind of scary, and being that it was from so far away, I can't even imagine what the residents of Virginia felt.

I experienced one when I was a kid living in PA that woke me up in the wee hours of the morning. But actually seeing the huge glass walls of my office building shake and quiver like they did almost made me evacuate in a different way than the rest of my co-workers.

As I said in the Irene thread - I really think God is annoyed with us.

Stay safe everyone!

We're ok, shaken, but ok. I have never, ever, been that scared. Spent a few hours cleaning up. Lots of pictures off the wall, the spare room lookes like, gee, an earthquake went thru here. The pantry looks like everything jumped off the shelves. My big glass cookie jars on top of the fridge all fell and broke into a million glass shards, all on the cheap kitchen carpet. But, we're ok.
Practice safe lunch. Use a condiment.

Wow, glad you're all o.k., tho, Lorraine. Been in lots of quakes, but never one bad enough to break anything. Just knick knacks jumping around the shelves.

Great to hear you're okay!! They say it went up the Appalachian Mountain Range like a bell ringing out.

Whew!

Glad to hear that Barbara and Lorraine are okay. Lorraine, that sounds like quite a mess you have on your hands there, but I'm glad you were not hurt.
