Just felt it. Epicenter in baja California. Water splashed out from my pool about 4 to 5 feet... Lots of quakes it seems recently... Jesus has truly risen! Our verizon wireless phones are down... Sorry for no article I'm on my iPod... Was a super long quake though... No dmg tho in the house...

EDIT: Sorry for shitty OP, I was editing with my iPod for a link or something with more detail, but the family went to a family friend's, who's power was out. Thus I couldn't connect to the internet or anything! The entire city power of Dana Point got knocked out.

Anything this strong though in SoCal is pretty damn rare though.

Damn.

http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/americas/04/04/mexico.earthquake/index.html?hpt=T1


(CNN) -- A magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck Baja California in northwestern Mexico on Sunday, shaking the ground at least as far away as Los Angeles, California, the U.S. Geological Survey and witnesses reported.

The quake struck at 3:40 p.m. PT and was centered about 175 kilometers (110 miles) east-southeast of Tijuana, according to the USGS.

Chandeliers swung and water sloshed around in swimming pools in the Los Angeles suburbs, witnesses reported, while posters to Twitter reported feeling the quake in Phoenix, Arizona.

I would hope not.

But ya I felt it pretty good in San Diego. Starts shaking a bit, "Oh an earthquake". 5 secs later its still shaking a bit: "Oh this might be a big earthquake maybe I should get up from my comp". It then started to shake pretty violently for a few more secs. Lasted pretty long.

Is it just me or do there seem to be an unusually large number of natural disasters occurring in the last ten years?
say you were born into a jungle indian tribe where food was scarce...would you run around from teepee to teepee stealing meat scraps after a day lazying around doing nothing except warming urself by a fire that you didn't even make yourself? -rekrul
