    Here in SoCal, about 5 minutes after local boy wins the Tour. Odd timing.

    My family lives in L.A. How big was it?

    I thought I felt something! ;) It just shook the bed a little, like a vibration. I thought my air conditioner was going on.

    It was a 3.6, very minor

    Funny quake. Happened not 5 minutes after Floyd wins the tour, and lo and behold, it's centered smack in the middle of the mountains he often trains in, about 20 minutes north of his home

    Only in California.

    For those of you who live here, and haven't seen this site, you must check it out.

    http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Maps/117-33.html

    It lists all earthquakes in the state and in Nevada, within minutes. Plus it gives a lot more information.

    Well, if fuck don't beat all.

    I didn't feel a damn thing. Oh well. Maybe next time. (There's always a next time 8).)

    When did this happen? And where? Was it the 2.0 in El Cerrito that I see on that link?

    Buck, I don't think you could have felt it according to this map.

    You all (California, Nevada) will be floating adrift by yourselves by 2020.

    For a second I thought someone was referring to that crappy 70s flick.
