16. felt it
I live in the San Bernardino County, and that was a good one.

I'm not sure why, but during the earthquake, I look up as if the ceiling magically grew a chandelier which could fall on my head.

23. I can just imagine...
The little quake we had last July was my first one since moving to California.

That one had my dogs all excited. They bark and then it stops...so I guess in their mind that works.
