I'd better look into this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/earthquake-1#post-1197993 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 07:58:05 +0000 Neel 1197993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad everyone is safe. &nbsp;Earthquakes are scary ...... big or small I have experienced it twice now in the last 8 years (latest being 6 months back). &nbsp;Our closest epicentre is in Iran our neighbors and we always experience tremors when they have high intensity earthquakes (which is quite frequent!) &nbsp;And I didn't sleep for months after that. &nbsp;Even the bed shaking a bit, when&nbsp;DH turned sides while sleeping, used to&nbsp;scare the $hit out of me and I used to wake up all trembling. &nbsp;Scary to say the least! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/earthquake-1#post-1197976 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 06:12:09 +0000 minimalist 1197976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad everyone is safe.</p> <p>What's your communication plan for coordinating with loved ones in case of a big quake, or other disaster? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/earthquake-1#post-1197914 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 04:09:08 +0000 Adelfa 1197914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah, I haven't seen the footage you're referring to (ended up having an 11 hour day at work) but I heard about it on the radio and my cousin said she saw it on Facebook. Guess what the attitude is here--everyone is ridiculing the newscasters for climbing under their desks!</p> <p>Thanks for all of the good wishes! That's brilliant about the museum putty, never heard of it--I'll get some! After all, antique demitasses must be displayed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/earthquake-1#post-1197878 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 03:16:38 +0000 Beth Ann 1197878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I lived 6 miles from the epicenter of the 6.1 Whittier Narrows quake in 1987.&nbsp; Shook the plaster off the lathe in my living room, and dumped cabinet contents onto the floor.&nbsp; It's hard to come to grips with the earth moving beneath you, for sure!</p> <p>Glad everyone is safe and sound! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/earthquake-1#post-1197837 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 02:49:28 +0000 Suz 1197837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad to know you are okay!!

Earthquakes are scary for sure. They are extremely rare in Belgium, in my lifetime we only ever had one, a very minor one at that, and we were all feeling a little shocked after it happened. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/earthquake-1#post-1197473 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 20:16:35 +0000 adorkable 1197473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Was out of town - but heard from many that even though it was the worst one in a while, there wasn't much damage, which is always good.

I was born in CA and remember being in an earthquake. I still look for a safe place to run when I hear a sonic boom or other loud noise that reminds me of it. So glad you're ok.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/earthquake-1#post-1197212 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 15:34:37 +0000 rachylou 1197212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw that on the news.

Earthquakes are a wild experience, a quick reminder of how volatile life can be. I try to grin and bear it but then I've never been hurt in one. The worst I've experienced is some cracked walls, dancing furniture, and broken mirrors. Didn't feel this one at all. Thanks for your report. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/earthquake-1#post-1197143 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 14:08:29 +0000 Adelfa 1197143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>About half an hour ago I felt my first earthquake since moving back to LA 3 months ago. It was a 4.7 on the Richter scale so not huge, but definitely palpable. Baby, my Russian Wolfhound, seemed to think something dangerous was going on! When I was a kid living here I thought earthquakes were fun, but I have to admit I'm a tiny bit more scared now. I think I'll stay away from the beach for a little while.</p> <p>I have belatedly taken down my demitasses in case of aftershocks. I wonder what I will do with them--they are my only collection and I love to look at them.</p> <p>How are the LA&nbsp;fabbers? Safe? Any property damage? </p>
