• [quote]The building I''m in just started shaking.\ \ \ \ And your first thought was \ "Help me, Datalounge!!"

• "Actually no, this one has the oldest timestamp."\ \ Yes, indeed, but it was soon overshadowed. And, no, R29, I knew it felt like an earthquake from past experience, so I wanted confirmation. I knew DL often responds quickly (insatiable bottom ans so on). I knew it wasn''t a big deal, so I posted on DL for confirm that it wasn''t just my building. CNN quickly confirmed it therdafter.

  OP

• [quote]All right, so for some of these people, 9/11 is still fresh in their minds, and when the earthquake hit, some of them thought it could be another attack. But over at Ground Zero, the muscled, dust-covered construction workers seemed to be holding up just fine.\ \ [quote]"I''m embarrassed to admit this," said an electrician named Pat, who had been in a fourth-floor bathroom. "But I didn''t know it was an earthquake. I thought the toilet bowl was coming loose."\ \ The LA Times reports on New Yorkers reaction to a rare earthquake
