Article about the Earthquake

http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE6BT2EY20101230

I was awaken by the house shaking at 7:55 a.m. and felt the after shock

My shih tzu dog 7 1/2 years old started whining, he was scared.

We are fine!

(*this is the 2nd time that I have felt an Earthquake at my house, the other one several years ago when my friend was visiting me and it scared her to death)

Wow, how big was it...I was sound asleep at that time, so I don't think I felt it here in Michigan.

Oh dear- that sounds scarey as heck!

Glad there was no damage or injuries. I've been through 3 tornadoes and numerous hurricanes (when we lived in the Houston area), but never an earthquake. For some reason, those seem way scarier to me...fear of the unknown, I guess.

on the article said 3.8 and was just a few miles from us, it sure was loud and shook the house

They say it was felt in the Chgo area, but I didn't feel a thing. Hope there is no damage...
