Growing up in St Louis, and spending a large part on my youth on the Mississippi, I can state that that part of the world is DEFINITELY earthquake country... <G> The Missouri side of the river has a gentle bank while the Illinois side has a cliff at least 100 feet high stretching for over a hundred miles. I may get floods and hurricanes in Houston, but we do get a bit of advance notice, and Squid® retires to the hills when necessary... <G>

Didn't feel a thing, didn't hear a thing. But I sleep like a rock.

I woke up at the time it was going on, but I figured it was just me waking up and had no clue until I saw the TV. Don't really know if I just work up or felt something really little. I'm so far away I have a hard time thinking that I felt something

Having lived in California for about 13 years, this little rumble wasen't even noticed by my sleep pattern.
