I was mortified and afraid to shower for a few days, for fear a big one would happen when I was naked [emoji39] That's actually true! But then the next one I experienced in Taichung, Taiwan. I was in bed (by myself) and my bed moved from one end of the room and back. I was severely depressed at the time, so just went back to sleep. I think a couple days later my boss took me to the hospital because I had stopped going to work for over a week. Not because of the earthquake.


bpcyclist, so you are a Dermatologist or have a background in that? Wow! I got professional advice on my face rash. You didn't even charge me a copay.


I have felt a very slight one here years ago. Was enough to wake me. Bed moving across the room ??? Omg I just can’t imagine!!! Id be terrified !

This APP QuakeFeed is really cool like today Iran had a 4.0 and Helena Oaklahoma had a 2.0 .. I’m just fascinated there are 25+ just today in Puerto Rico ,most are not felt until at least a 3+ of course. But our planet is always moving.
