I was born and raised in L.A. and was in a 6.9er in 1970 I think it was. 35 years here in Houston and 4 Hurricanes. I'm moving to Wyoming.
My father in law was sitting on the throne when that one hit, they had just moved here from NY, SURPRISE!!! I was just going to bed, worked the grave then, the bed moved before my butt hit the mattress.[&:] Anyway, that was a fun one. I tried to turn on my radio for a report but the house was rolling and I couldn't grab the knob to turn it on. A few years back we had some big ones, those weren't fun. We dispatched a number of our fire fighters to SF for those. Parts of the city did fall down and people died.
I'm still waiting to hear from firends on the east coast.
I messed up earlier when I said a 5.9 earthquake. It was 6.9.
