damn, i felt it too.(well no **** huh?)

i was on the second floor of my office building. i swear the floor was moving about 1/2 a foot in each direction. I thought the damn building was going to collapse!

I felt it jiggle a little bit, and just when i thought it was over, it romped for another 2-3 seconds really hard. Made me grab the desk, and i was sitting down!

Grabbed my **** and headed for the door!

that was pretty intense.

Damn andrew, 25 miles? your in the thick of it. 25 miles is close considering people from las vegas, san diego and Modesto felt it. 8o

I felt it! I work on Resevoir street in Pomona. Right down the street from Chino. I thought it was a sonic boom or something at first... then my computer started moving, and the whole office was shifting.

I ran into the next room, everyone's freaking out, and I yell SMOKE BREAK!! All 30 of us go outside lol
