Woke up at 5:39-ish this morning because the bed was rocking back and forth.
Mind you, we have two cats who sometimes start fighting on the bed and make it wiggle a bit, but there was no miaowing and hissing accompanying this.
And I thought: Feels just like the earthquake in '86'87 [now that I think about it, Jeff is correct].
PS: Sally is in Pennsylvania for Passover. Get your minds out of the gutter.
PPS: There was just another shock, a 4.5 this time. I didn't feel it, but Jeff Naylor did.
PPPS: The Gannett Star notes "Indiana has also suffered damage caused by earthquakes originating in neighboring states. The worst occurred on Nov. 9, 1968, and centered near Dale in southern Illinois." I vaguely remember this -- I was in school (third grade) and I remember the teacher telling us to stay away from the windows.
They talk about the New Madrid quakes of 1811-12 but they don't discuss what those quakes did outside the state (major damage along the Mississippi, and in fact, the course of the Mississippi River apparently changed as a result of the quakes), or the theory the "fallen timbers" of the Battle of Fallen Timbers in 1794 were felled by a magnitude 8+ New Madrid quake. (Another theory is that a tornado or other major storm felled them.) Basically a pretty boring article (typical of the Star).
