I loved you, so I drew these tides of men into my hands and wrote my will across the sky in stars to earn you Freedom. - T.E. Lawrence
All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act out their dream with open eyes, to make it possible.

yes. my dogs were startled and some hanging pots and pans clanged a bit. brief quake though and not as strong as last year.
I'm relieved someone else felt it, I though I was loosing my marbles for a moment...so often with these tremors, if you are moving around you don't feel them!
Strange... My mom called 2 minutes after saying, "Did you feel it? Did you feel it??" Torn and I were on the 37th fl and didn't feel it at all. Our cats were pretty clueless too. I thought this building would sway violently with every earthquake (as they should if they have floating foundations meant to be good for earthquakes). a bit worrisome..
apparently the building where I work swayed pretty well...my colleagues were up on the 14th floor and all felt it!
The worst building swaying I have ever experienced was in HKG, Typhoon York (No. 10 signal) on the 14th floor of my building...and that went on all day! Apparently on HK Island those living in the really tall apartment blocks had to spend the day in the lobby because the motion sickness was so bad!
