Any of you guys feel that one? Apperently it was a 6.8 off of Port Hardy. It rattled us around pretty good for a few seconds. Now I'm hearing it was in Ladysmith. Anyhoo.

Nothing here. I can be pretty oblivious though, just ask my wife.

I'll have to check with the missus (we're just 20 minutes south of Ladysmith)

I felt a small ground tremor around 24 seconds left in the third period. Probably not related.



/seriously, though. Hope everyone's okay. I've lived in Hurricane zones and now in Tornado zone and Earthquakes terrify me. Been through one, and that was quite enough for me. I was in San Fran after the 89 quake. Scary stuff.

We're alright down here, although I'm still a little dizzy; my wooden place kind of absorbs the quake in a strange way.

I know a bunch of people that moved to Vancouver. Isn't that one of the tests for whether or not you're from Toronto?

1 of them.

Can point out where Victoria BC is on the map?

Yeah but that's sort of an easy one, you should ask me to point out somewhere in the middle of the province like Prince George.
