Earthquake in Raleigh, NC
 
We just had an earthquake in Raleigh, North Carolina. Not a joke. Our entire building shook and books were falling off the shelves. People are all outside and many are really freaking out. Nothing on the news yet. Anyone else have this. I understand it was felt in Durham as well. And we are worried about the hurricane! Just when you thing you have experienced everything.

It was also felt in D.C. and Martha's Vineyard too.
Obama is vacationing at Martha's Vineyard...
He is blaming the Republican's and Jeff Teuton for the earthquake and the scare he experienced... :D

Felt here in Bridgeport, CT which is in the Southwest part of the state right on Long Island Sound. The couch that I was sitting on started moving; at first I thought that I was imagining it until I heard about the quake.

About a 5.9 just north-west of Richmond, near Mineral, VA. There's a fault that runs underneath there and they get small trembler's every so often. This one is the largest since 1897!

I now have some appreciation of how my friends and family in California feel! Very strange experience.:eek:

I was in Morrisville in my car at the time and felt nothing. Got home and couldn't find anything had fallen. Some of the existing cracks in the loading dock and floor at work seemed a little wider than I had remembered, though.
