Government encouraging persons to live on fault lines and ocean fronts using all sorts of taxpayer-funded incentives. Will Nature correct this?

Lots of drama on the local news! Thankfully the major damage is just the local news. And it has been downgraded to a 4.7... nothing to see here, move along.

Close enough to be.

Sounds like a horizontal shift rather than a verticle one.

Hope there is no major damage.

A few of my wife's tins flew off the shelves.
I heard a few sirens soon after it hit. Don't know about that yet.
The huge BNP/ Paribas Open Tennis Tournament is in full swing at the tennis stadium a 1/2 mile away. I'm sure the out of staters and Canuks were freaking out.
Hopefully not to the point of injuries.

Dang it was close... no wonder.
Only 5.1? Wow.

Edit: Yeah one of the 5.2s I was just seeing is gone, and another is now reported as 4.7. Did you feel more than one jolt?
