LOL no way.I M in toowoomba,Queensland,Australia. I doubt I will ever experience one here
 
Yup live over here in California next to that dam San Andreas fault waiting for the BIG one to happen. Just last summer there was a earthquake shook my classroom pretty good it was hard to walk to somthing like a 5.7 or i think it was a 6.7 i dont remember.
 
yep, so. cali. a few times and some big one's too mostly everyone from so. cali. has been in one.
 
I'm sure most everyone has been through a twister, or some other kind of bad storm..The human response of fight or flight kicks in and since it's something we can't "fight". We run. Well as those of you that have been through a earthquake know, you can't run. There's almost no where you can hide from an earthquake. It's actually pretty scary.
 
Lived in California all my life. Have experienced all earthquakes between the years of 1981 - 2009 (present).

The only major big one was the northridge one but it wasn't too bad, just things have been swaying back and forth. I do remember another one earlier than that, (kindergarden - first grade) where it felt like the entire building was being lifted up and down by jacks. We dove under the table on that one.

The latest one that occured in Chino Hills area wasn't too bad, we evacuated the building where I worked, I think Chino Hills was about 10 miles away.

I'm still trying to put together a earthquake kit for me and my family, I miss having the pre-made one we had before, the food in it lasted for years! I ate it though. Near the expiration date.
 
nope but my dad and moms n sis was in the 88 i tink up at norcal wen the bridge made a pancake
 
I live in Illinois and I have had a couple where they knock some stuff off the shelves but nothing real bad.
 
Yep, i belive it was a 6.5, it was a lil nerve recking cuz it was my first, and hopefully last earthquake
 
the last one I was to busy to notice I was playing DOD.
But I thought man why is my chair moving.
