David Dickinson was watching television at home in Courtenay on the east coast of central Vancouver Island when it struck.
"I was watching the U.S. Open Tennis downstairs and while sitting on my couch I felt it beginning to move back and forth.... It didn't frighten me... but it took my attention off the tennis match for a few minutes." http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/story/2011/09/09/bc-earthquake-vancouver-island.html That right there is funny. I'm glad it didn't cause a big problem and it looks like the initial report of a 6.8 has been downgraded to a 6.4 I've been through a 6.0 earthquake and it wasn't that bad though it did spook me. Once you start edging up higher though you have the potential for nasty things like tsunamis.
