    Not in the affected area, but my brother was up and about. He's visiting from Ca., noted the shake, went on about his business. The wife and I did not wake up. The epicenter was ~150 miles west. News reports here say some road buckling occurred, and a boulder the size of an SUV fell on one road. Some house damage from chimneys falling down, etc.

    Yep, that's a Californian for you. Magnitude 5.6 would make one pause from drinking his/her coffee for a moment while waiting to see if this was The Big One, then shrug it off and go right back to reading the morning paper.

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
