2.7 km is equal to 2.3 km. This suggests to me that whoever did the conversion 
was told to always round UP, which, as every schoolboy knows, is incorrect.

BTW, if they hired somebody at $10,001, would they round it up to $20,000?

The USGS reported the depth as 3.7 km. WLOS changed it to 3 mi. I sent a 
comment to WLOS.

I was awake in bed at the time and felt horizontal shaking (north- south, I 
think) and heard things making noises. I submitted a DYFI report as soon as the 
shaking stopped, then told a group of local people on Slack.
