So...we just had a 5.9 earthquake out here in Western Md. Not something we're used to.

They're saying it was centered in Mineral, VA.

Fracking related is my guess.

That's fairly close to Charlottesville, VA too...

My buddy from Philly just called to ask if we felt it here; apparently he was on the phone with someone in Atlanta who said they did.

I did not, but I'm working at home today.

Definitely felt it here in PA--as did Ohio and NY and pretty much the whole world.

Might have felt it here, but I'd never know with the construction going on next door.

some of the street vendors outside my building said they didn't notice whereas we were swaying away a few floors up. I think it depended if you were indoors or out and what sort of building you were in.

Yeah, I was on the third floor. Our battery-backups on all our computers started going off all at once and then all of the sudden our desks and stuff started vibrating and shaking. Went outside and people were just going about their business. Then all of the building started to empty out. Everyone making sure if wasn't just their building.

Some of the spires fell off of the National Cathedral, and now apparently the Washington Monument is tilted? Those are the reports at least.
