Earthquake!!

4.0 on the Richter scale. Seems to have started just outside of Augusta (just east of Kzoo).  I live in a highrise in Kzoo and I about shit a brick.  

from a 150 year nap, striding across the straits from the UP en route to Detroit for a conference on urban farming. Feeling damned good, too.

I live near train tracks in A2 and felt something rumble and though "why didn't I hear the train before I felt it?"
Looked outside and was utterly confused till I logged on to the interwebs.

we get an earthquake here in MI about once every ten years and I have never ever felt any of them.

Nothing here in D.C.

I still remember my first earthquake. I was in my parents' bedroom and it felt like a heavy wind had just hit their floor-to-ceiling window, but the trees weren't moving. My dog -- who was on their bed -- was also puzzled.

I thought a car hit my house

I'm about 5 miles from the epicenter, that was insane!

South East Michigan, but then again, nothing rattles me.

That earthquake didn't break any overpasses, but it looks like a disaster in my kitchen. Plates and pans and food everywhere. I wonder if my renters insurance covers a maid to clean this shit up.

Haven't felt the earth move since my wedding night...1976. Oy

I had just told my wife to pull my finger and rattled a real earth shaker and thought I had a record breaker

Felt nothing.

Was coaching baseball in Galesburg when it hit. Pretty freaky. Giving the team a post game speech when it rumbled the grounds.

If it was anything below a 4 that would be nothing out here, we haven't really had much going on tremor wise lately though.

I live in portage and had flashes of Red Dawn.. Thought there was a tank in my front yard!!! Check that off bucket list

Was doing paperwork at my office in Holland and thought a tree fell on the other side of the building. First one I've felt since one cracked our toilet in half as a kid in Montana.

Here in Middleville we felt it. I thought the giant Fed Ex plane that flys overhead every day was a wee but to low until I looked and no plane! Very cool.

Felt here in Grand Ledge. Was at my work bench in the basement repairing a computer, wondered why I suddenly felt jittery. Then I realized I was so bad I was shaking the table. Then I heard the sound of the plumbing rattling and a dull rumble like my girlfriend was sliding furniture across the floor upstairs. That's when I realized I wasn't shaking anything, I was being shaken. 

I assumed it was a helicopter passing overhead a little too low and slow. There's a National Guard aviation unit nearby, I actually used to serve in it, so I'm pretty used to that noise. My girlfriend came running down to ask if I felt it and if it was the boiler. I'm like yeah, I'd still be just sitting here if I thought it was the boiler. It was just a helicopter, chill. The possibility of an earthquake didn't even occur to me until her phone rang less than a minute later and it was her mom over toward Kalamazoo, calling to ask if we felt it.

some pretty devasting ones too - i'm sure the mgobloggers who were out there for the whittier narrows quake, the 89 world series quake, jan of 92 among others will remember.  those were all literal killers.

Did not feel anything in downtown Detroit.

Your mom fell down is all it was.

This is the third earthquake since I moved here in 1998 from California. For the most part these small ones in the 4 range are felt by transplanted Californians

I was in the Kerrytown shops & farmers market at the time and didn't feel it at all.

I didn't feel it the last time one was in Michigan, or the time people here felt one from Kentucky.

Then there was during the game at the Rose Bowl, I think it was '79, Ufer said he knew it was happening because the mic, which was hanging from the ceiling, started to swing back and forth. My hotel said the building swayed back and forth a couple of feet, but I felt nothing at the game! If I had been in the hotel I surely would've had a heart attack!

So I've been in 4 earthquakes without feeling any of them!
