yeah there was a 4.9 i think recently here in the olympics mountain region. i was also here when a bigger one hit seattle. i was in a medical building in the 5th floor. while everyone stood around and dazed, i told them to get the hell out and i was like the second person out of the building. i'm not going to follow that advice of staying in esepcially when i learned later that the building i was in had alot of cracks. thus, any longer, that building would had crumbled to the ground with people under it. its really no laughing matter IMO no matter the size of the quake. we just have to be careful. though, personally ii was both cautious AND excited that i was in my first quake. and i had just moved there.
