What the heck is going on down there. You guys have had what 80 earthquakes in the last month.

+1 I felt it in Incline too.

Maybe you should take off your pants so your butt dyno is a little more sensitive!

Is there anything good that can come from wearing pants?

That's what you get for working on a ground floor.

There is ether something grammatically or psychotically wrong with that sentence.

Here, let me rephrase that for you:

"Mike wants you to take off your pants."

Clearer?

Nick Koan 2008-04-24 04:14 PM

Or, it sounds more like a rallying cry.

PANTS ARE EVIL!
DOWN WITH PANTS!
PANTS ARE EVIL!

Yes, but equally disturbing. :) About 4.3 on the ickier scale.

Bob Danger 2008-04-24 04:18 PM

There is nothing wrong about not wearing pants. In fact I'm not wearing pants.

That thing shook the shit out of the warehouse. I was standing between two 12 foot tall shelves...eek.

knucklesplitter 2008-04-24 05:11 PM

That one made tires squeak at traffic lights... or so my gf tells me.

Yeah, but 9000 treadwear tires from 1977 squeak while standing still all the time. (YOUR GF'S CAR IS OLD! :P)

Afterwards, she waits a second or so, takes off, and does hot laps around the house. When the 3.0+ ones hit it was worse though! ..

Poor kitty(ies). :eek:

The 4.2 shook open cabinet doors and drawers, and skewed one picture on the wall, up here. Rachel ran outside and saw the house moving. :eek:

MikeK 2008-04-24 05:48 PM

Does anyone have any damage?

You know nothing... IT'S A 1979!!!!11!1!

tysonK 2008-04-24 09:24 PM

I was in my office during the 3:55pm one, it made my wall creak barely, and I felt it in my stomach.

wrxkidid 2008-04-24 11:04 PM

I felt it.

I dunno what weird connection I have with earthquakes, but I think they are cool. I now they are super dangerous and deadly but I think the little ones are fun.

Maybe it has something to do with being born during the 1989 quake in San Francisco?

I was born up here in Reno, but still was during it...

Video by the USGS http://youtube.com/watch?v=6GfHkRNnZDE 7.1 at the epicenter.

WRX06TR 2008-04-25 01:13 AM

Whoa. I fell asleep in my recliner downstairs and a good little shake woke me up, rattled the glasses on the coffee table and rattled the entertainment center cabinets. Was probably around 1:50 nothing serious but it was the first time I have ever felt one around here, or ever for that matter.

Kavid 2008-04-25 06:29 AM

Woke up to a 3.1 at 1:42AM This Morning. This isn't funny, I am actually becoming very worried! Not to mention the 4 last afternoon and evening. A 4.1 at 3:47pm, a 3.0 directly after, a 4.2 8 min. later, and topped off by a 3.3 at 6pm. :?:

MPREZIV 2008-04-25 06:35 AM

I have yet to feel even a single one of these...

Cross your fingers. I'd hate to have you under a car on a lift when you feel your first one of them.... :eek:

JonnydaJibba 2008-04-25 08:04 AM

We are being invaded! Reno, NV, epicenter for the destruction of the world!!!!

Same here. In fact, despite growing up in california I have only felt 2 in my entire life- Loma Prieta in 1989, and one a few years ago at Stead during an autocorss, it was like a 3.0 or something.
