Originally posted by tonytiger41We felt it here in Pennsylvania, we live north of Philly about 70 miles. For some reason we don't have cell phone service right now. There is no signal from the local towers, can't call 611 or 911. Isn't that great. A smallish earthquake hundreds of miles south and we can't call emergency numbers. Smallish because that is a normal day Los Angeles, my home city. Like the song says, Born in East La, I was Born in East LA, Cheech and Chong.
you must be from out of town.
ever ride the 7 train in queens? the elevated platform rattles every time a trains comes in.
as r.j. fischer once said, "i thought it was the subway."
I was also sleeping through it in Southern New England. My wife felt it leaning against a copy machine, the technician here felt it sitting in a chair on wheels. No one else here felt it. The woman at the post office felt it sitting in her car. Said it felt like someone was rocking her car, she thought it was her full tank of gas acting up as she pulled up to an intersection.

Originally posted by trev33Not a whole lot of damage. There was one report of an early 20th century house used as a business that lost two chimneys but no obvious damage here. As of right now, 4:30 pm tuesday, there still is no cell phone signal here. No service, not even for 911.
makes sense.
did it actually do any damage to anything?
