glad you are still in one piece James.

the destruction caused by a quake depends not only on the strength, but the depth as well.

I want another one, the only one i've felt was over by the time i realized what it was

Glad all is okay James. 5.1 is big!


More on Earthquakes:
Depth and crust density are factors in reflection. Reflection causes constructive (bad) and destructive (good) interference to the waves. Consequently some areas will experience big damage while areas between them experience low or no damage.
