Anyone else feel that Earthquake that swept through the east coast around 1:53 today? I'm absolutely terrified, almost reduced to tears over here. I'm not used to it and wasn't prepared for anything of the such. So who else felt it, and how'd you deal with it?

I did. I was sitting in my chair at work and felt like I was shaking a little. Not enough to make me think earthquake, but I looked at my hand to see if I was shaking. I thought I was just dizzy or something until I saw Facebook explode with earthquake posts.

This is why I love facebook and twitter and the like - if there's any major problem in the world, everyone knows it within minutes.
Also, even though I'm in the suburbs of the Boston area (which felt the quake), I didn't feel anything. I was also asleep at the time, so that could also have been it.

I live in South Jersey and my entire building shook for 10-20 seconds. First time I've ever really felt an earthquake. Glad to see everyone's alright.

Err, I was on the North Shore of MA, didn't notice a thing. Also didn't know there was a quake till I saw a CNN report on it on a co-workers computer...

Seattle WA here and didn't feel a thing. However, I was playing a game of mafia and a couple people were freaking out about an earthquake around that time. It was weird to here people going OMG EArThQUAKE and not feel a thing...
