1. DUers are reporting feeling it in Philly, NYC, NC. Pentagon
being evacuated.

Fifteen seconds seems like an eternity. I was in one that was almost a full minute, and I'm STILL waiting for it to stop! :7

:grouphug: -- Scary, I know!

2. Same here near Woods Hole on Cape Cod
at my age I was wondering if shaking in my chair was the first sign of a stroke or something because reading the puter got blurry for almost a minute.

8. We felt it all the up here in Eastern Connecticut.
News reports saying people evacuated skyscrapers all the way up in Providence, RI. That's a LONG WAY from Virginia!
