Yeah, that was crazy. I thought I was getting dizzy, since I was watching the back of my cube shake back and forth. It did shake for something like a minute. That was crazy.

And I am also in Cupertino at the moment.

6.5, and centered down near Hearst Castle...thats a little far south for "south bay" (unless we invade Monterey county... I'm game.)

Whats interesting to me is where it happened: Thats out near the ostensibly "dormant" San Gregorio fault, and far from the San Andreas inland.

Fun with Geophysics.

Yeah, when I posted it was still unknown where the earthquake was centered, so I posted my location.
