Generally they don't last long, and generally stuff does not fall off shelves. The cabin does not have a foundation, but sets on blocks, which I think makes for less damage as it slides around, back and forth. All is well on the farm'stead. I hope that was not a "PRE" quake.

CNN said 5.7 just now. Hope and Doug better use seatbelts if you are using the "throne". Stay safe

Not ESP, ESPN :) Everytime something momentous has happened, that is where I always seemed to be. Maybe it is too much fiber, :)

Check out New Madrid, MO. 8.0 - My great, great, great, whatever uncle was one of three Baptist ministers in Illinois at the time. They baptized over 100 per day for several weeks right after that one. For some reason folks want to get right when the world's about to end.

They had sand blows near New Madrid that deposited over 30 feet of sand!!! (think of a volcano spewing sand).
