Re: [MBZ] Okie acres just rocked
Glad they were safe, a good Galileo thermometer is one of the best pieces of functional art you can have. A Nantucket weather vane is on par in terms of function and form as well. Also glad everyone else is OK (pun not intended...)

Re: [MBZ] Okie acres just rocked
Just got hit by a 5.2 quake here at okie acres. This was the strangest thing I have experienced. It is the strangest experience Kaleb, my childhood memories were refreshed as we went to Christchurch, New Zealand to visit family friends in April this year. My journey home was bitter sweet, my hometown is gone forever, but my family and lifelong friends are ok. Was woken up at 4.30am one morning and my niece's house was creaking from side to side - the noise was intense. I also felt like I was bouncing up and down on a trampoline - that was a 4.6 aftershock. I will never forget Hendrik's first experience of an aftershock. We were at a friend's house perched high on the side of a hill, we didn't feel it but heard it - sounded like machine guns peppering the side of their house. I have never seen the big fellow go white until that moment. Glad you have all - Okie Don and family too - seem to come out with little damage or injury after reading the Tulsa and Okie City newspapers.

Re: [MBZ] Okie acres just rocked
Hey Kaleb - We had a 5.8 about 6 weeks ago in central Va. - 1st (and last I hope) time I ever felt a earthquake! As you said, it's a strange thing - not what I expected - I was in the garage when it started - lasted about 10 seconds - I walked outside and my neighbors were coming outside looking at each other! We all had the same puzzled look in our face. My 1st thought was a terrorist bombing (probably an over-reaction ;-)) or an accidental explosion somewhere - we have a number of manufacturing facilities around that I thought may have had a problem. I hope you didn’t have any damage? Need to check foundation and chimneys - any brick/concrete/block structure can come apart - Take care - LarryT 91 300D -Original Message- From: Kaleb C.

Re: [MBZ] Okie acres just rocked
I have been in a number of quakes over the years (Bogota, San Francisco, Indiana) and the one thing that I have always noticed is how you (I) seem to get vertigo when it happens. I have to believe it's due to your inner ear detecting movement while your eyes don't see it. Fun!

Same here at Kittyhawk (33OK) -- rocked mostly laterally I think, lots of rumbling and house creaking. No damage - even the 24 Galileo thermometers on the mantle stayed in place.
