Sure did feel it here on L.I. At first I thought it was a big truck going by our building but as I looked towards the window and noticed the vertical blinds swaying and my chair was shaking as well as my monitor on the desk and my co-workers chair also (she was at lunch) I knew it was an earthquake. I lived in CA for quite some time so I knew after the first couple of seconds. They evacuated the building just to make sure all was ok. Some people were a little freaked out. Now we have to watch and see if hurricane Irene is going to pay us a visit over the weekend. Guess I'll get my "go" pack ready to go -- which will include my new-to-me featherweight which arrived today. :)
