Default Earthquake
So did anyone feel the earthquake??? I felt the house shake and thought it might be the wind since it has been howling all night long. I woke up and turned on the tv and saw that there was a 4.3 earthquake in Virgil, IL. I thought earthquakes were only in Cali.

My wife, was like "that must have been a gust of wind"

Given that there was no wind after that, I knew it was an earthquake.

Pretty wild

The news said that it was felt in Milwaukee... weird.

I'm going to move this one into the Windy City as it isn't S2000 related...

I felt nothing last night and I didn't feel anything from last year's earthquake as well. Only time I felt a 'real' earthquake was in Tokyo as a child - now that was freaky...
